BGSU RUGBY NEEDS THE HELP OF ALL FALCON FANS

[Rugby Coach]

I know this isn't a women's basketball topic , but the BGSU rugby team needs the help of all Falcon sports fans. Despite our #1 national ranking the entire fall season, despite our #3 finish in the 2010 National championship - the "BGSU" brand isn't strong enough for NBC TV (yes - a TV company is calling the shots on who gets in - imagine that) to automatically include us in the 2011 national championship. Last year we beat Army, Indiana, Arizona State & Penn State in the tournament before losing to Utah in the final seconds on national TV. There are four slots left in the 2011 event. NBC TV by way of the Tournament organizer, Rugby Magazine, has created a voting poll. As of 10:45pm on Thursday, 2/17, BGSU is second in the voting. The voting is Chicago style, i.e. - vote early & often. We need your help. If everyone reading this will take five minutes and just vote as many times as they can it will be an immense help. Find work boring on Friday - vote some more. Got a Facebook page - tell your friends.

Looks like we did get the attention of USA 7s and Rugbymag.com with the large amount of votes that BG received last week. Alex Goff, editor of Rugbymag.com posted an opinion column last night commenting on the amazing response to their online poll for the CRC Tournament in Philly next June. He mentioned Bowling Green and other schools who really showed how strong and widespread their alumni really are. BG Rugby alumni and fans should be extremely proud of eachother and their club for continuing to show how we are just as organized and professional as those Cal guys. Go RugBG!!!
