BU vs Susquehanna- March 27th 2010

Bloomsburg's second game was home against Susquehanna University which led to our teams second shut out! BU won 51-nothing against this team and was able to give new vets and rookies playing time to strengthen their skills. Bloomsburg utilized their back line but also took advantage of a lot of quick picks that led to our high score count.

First match of the season- Bryn Mawr

Bloomsburg University's Women's Rugby team travelled to Bryn Mawr University (located near Philadelphia) on March 20th to compete in our first rugby game of the season. Bloomsburg's intense practices and drills paid off as our players ran circles around Bryn Mawr's very large team. The teams couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day to play a little rugby and Bloomsburg certainly brought their A-game with a shut out of 34-0- victory to Bloomsburg!
