Week 3 in the Men's Division 1 Midwest conference featured just 2 contests, each with interesting results. Although it's still early in the season, week 3 suggests a tightening of the competitive level in the Division and may make for a lot of interesting matches all season long.
CRC @ Barbarians
The Barbarians hosted CRC in Milwaukee. The visitors came out of the blocks quickly and were up by 3 tries very early. The hosts clawed back but were not able to close the gap with CRC winning 28-25. The win is an important one for CRC — especially on the road — who look to have renewed determination following their 1-13-0 record last season.
On Twitter, CRC announced that the win comes "under the guidance of @tiger7sacademy" which appears to indicate a closer relationship between the 15s program at CRC and the Olympic 7s training program at the Tiger Academy.
Despite the loss for the hosts, the close score and productive offense nets 2 points for Milwaukee.
Blues @ Wolfhounds
The Wolfhounds surprised the Blues — the 2014-2015 Division Champions — with a very strong defensive display in the first half that resulted in an 11-3 lead at half-time for Cincinnati.
But the Blues stamina would win the day in the second half where 3 tries by the visitors secured a 27-21 victory for the Blues.
