WSU Rugby Team Wins National Title

The Washington State University women's rugby team defeated Temple University 37-0 in Palo Alto, Calif., to win the USA Rugby national women's collegiate Division II championship this weekend. This is the first National title for the WSU Women's Rugby team who ended the 2009-2010 season with an undefeated record. With a 15-5 victory over no. 2 seed Norwich University in the semifinals on Friday, the Cougars had momentum in their favor going into their championship match against the Owls.

Question: Do you think the women's rugby team could take the WSU Cougar football team?
