Following a victory over Pitt in the round of 16, Dartmouth Rugby took on St. Bonaventure on Sunday for the opportunity to represent the Northeast in the D1-AA Final 4.

The Columbia Lions beat out the Yale Bulldogs 20-3 under the lights last Friday night at Baker on the campus of Columbia University.

Despite falling behind 17-0 in the first half, with 5 minutes to go in the contest Princeton was on the rampage with a chance to win. With the score 32-17, taking into account the way Princeton was playing, three tries to win were not out of the question. Three second half Princeton tries had cut the deficit in half, but in the end Army settled and 32-17 was the final in favor of the Lady Black Knights.

In a back and forth contest at Penn Park in Philadelphia where neither team could seem to put the other away, Brown defeated Penn 39 - 33 to earn a shot at the Ivy Rugby title. Brown will travel to Dartmouth this Saturday for a match against Ivy Champion Dartmouth.
