UC Santa Barbara beat BG 30-3 in the national semifinals. Damn.... Davenport (a team BG beat twice this year) beat Harvard in the other semifinal 62-21. UC Santa Barbara and Davenport will play for the title tomorrow.

Does this mean we will not be in the tournament on NBC in June that they started promoting yesterday?

Or is this a different type...I know they have different formats of rugby...just not sure which is which.

No. We were not selected for that tournament.
