The A side is returning ten seniors; eight of whom are four year seniors and contributors to four collective national 7s and fall national 15s titles during their tenure. Second year senior, Adrienne Yoder, is the program's most recent USA Rugby Collegiate All American and named in the 23 for the WCAA/WPL All Star Week Series in early August. Our seniors will be keeping excellent company with a skilled group of returning sophomores and juniors as well as a high octane core of new freshmen and upperclasswomen; two of whom join Zoomie rugby as former high school players.

Coach quote after winning the League championship match: “Very simply, you were excellent today. The only downside of today was the cancellation of the B side match. Let's build on today's excellence and momentum and continue to individually and collectively refine our areas needing improvement. Please be patient with us as we determine practice locations and times this week and next given the time change. To every player who was not in the 23 today, your commitment does not go unnoticed. Programmatic success is only a result of every team member's contributions and the competition for positions created by our young and developing players. I think I speak for all of the coaches when I say we are so proud of each and every one of you and are grateful to be able to coach women like you.”

And NATIONAL CHAMPIONS! [[1]]
