Service Academy Scores
From USAFA Rugby Alumni
Headline text
Competitions for the men started in 1970, and the first year that each Academy played the other was 1973. In 1984-85, the Air Force men's team initiated a "Commandant's Cup" but it soon became lost to memory. Today the Navy vs Air Force Men's match is played for the Shea Cup.
Women's competition began in 1996
