Brigham Young University Rugby announced today that it will no longer be participating in USA Rugby’s Collegiate Division 1A postseason tournament and is in the process of evaluating post-season options for the upcoming 2013 Winter/Spring 15s collegiate rugby season.

According to BYU Rugby head coach David Smyth, “We have observed the rapidly changing collegiate rugby environment and have come to the conclusion that we should evaluate other options for the post-season.”

This decision is effective immediately. It is expected that a follow-on announcement of the team’s regular-season and playoff intentions will be issued in a short time.
