A Whitewash (and Whiteout) at Yale

Yale snowy sevens
Saturday, October 29, 2011

Yale University, New Haven, CT -- Brown University participated in a small warm-up 7’s event at Yale University to prepare the team for the Ivy 7’s Championship next weekend at the Irish Cultural Center in Canton MA. Eight teams participated in the event that was eventually cut short due to weather conditions. A winter storm hit New Haven at about noon causing a couple games to be canceled and no final to be played. Both Brown sides were able to get 3 games each.
