Brown Takes Inaugural Ivy Rugby 7s

New York, NY, Brown University won the first annual Ivy League 7s Championship, defeating host Columbia 19-10 in the final.

The field consisted of eight teams, divided into two, four-team pools. Due to the fact that both Princeton and Harvard were no-shows, host Columbia and Dartmouth fielded both A and B teams.
