Fall 2016 Northeastern men's rugby schedule

The 2016 Maddogs open against Harvard and host Phil Ciccarelli's UMass at Parsons.

Rugby season has arrived, and we hope you can all make it down to support the 2016 Maddogs as they look to build on a much-improved 2015 campaign.

The season opened on September 3 with a non-conference match against former NERFU rivals Harvard at Parsons Field. The last time the Dogs met the Crimson, the boys from Cambridge edged us in a tight battle in the rain at Nationals in 2011.

Make a special effort to get to Parsons on Saturday, September 24 at 6pm, when former Maddog Phil Ciccarelli brings his UMass Amherst side to town. We need a big crowd to give Phil’s boys hell!

Note that the AIC game in Springfield is on Sunday, October 9 at 3pm, not Saturday the 8th as the schedule shows. The Boston College game is still being finalized, but it looks to be another battle for the bragging rights of “Best of Boston”.
