University of Chicago Men's Rugby

Thank you to every single person who was involved in our history making Fall 2025 XV’s Season!

Records were smashed and new memories were made. We are looking to come back bigger and better next year!

In the meantime Happy Holidays from UChicago Rugby 🏉

Not the result we wanted today. We just wanted to say a massive thank you to all of our supporters throughout the season. Without you this would not be possible! We made club history going the furthest the team has ever gone!

Another shout out to our seniors who played their last game of XV rugby today. Unfortunately it did not end on our terms but you have certainly left the club in a better way then you found it.

Thank you to for an unreal match. You guys really went out there with a desire and will that is extremely commendable.

That brings our 15s season to an end. We have some work to do in the winter to prep for Spring 7’s and look to build on this momentum going into our XV season next year 🦅

FINAL FOUR

Chicago 43, Colorado Mesa 38! This Commissioner isn't quite sure he's ever seen a match quite like that before, the Maroons scored the first 17 points, Colorado Mesa scored 31 unanswered between minutes 31 and 41, Chicago scored the final go ahead try in the second half with only thirteen men on the pitch, and battled through what I counted were five yellow cards throughout the match. All told, a really, really hard fought match by both teams but Chicago remains undefeated, improves their record to 9-0-1, and advances to the NCR D2 Final Four in Houston the weekend of Dec. 12th - 14th. Kudos to Colorado Mesa on a tremendous effort in an instant classic of a match and a hearty Huzzah to the University of Chicago Men's Rugby club as they move on.

Our squad coming out of the short turn around. Bring it on 🦅
