Arkansas State Red Wolves Rugby Gets National Recognition

This is American Rugby has named the Arkansas State Red Wolves the college rugby team their team of the year.

From the article announcing the selection:

It’s been a fantastic year for Arkansas State Red Wolves rugby all around. First they have a terrific regular season in the DI-A South; then they tear through the playoffs and make it to the national championship match, where they test BYU in front of a hostile crowd. To top it all off, they win the College 7’s Nationals at the end of the year, despite not playing a lot of rugby. Arkansas State Red Wolves have always been one of the better sides in college rugby, and under Matt Huckaby the team has taken it to another level. Huckaby passed the team on to Alex Houser last fall and all they did was win a 7’s championship. The team is in good hands.

This is American Rugby speculates 2013 will be another good year for the squad from Jonesboro, saying, “Good things are waiting the Red Wolves in 2013 as they look to win a DI-A championship and defend their College 7’s title.”
