NSCRO salutes Hofstra University Rugby led by coach Rob Ploth for setting goals that go beyond the pitch. Here's what Coach Ploth just posted "Holding trophies is fantastic, and being voted all American is great. But that’s on the field stuff... what about the off field stuff? What are you doing to help the community, the culture, YOU?! This past weekend a bunch of players helped out with the special olympics. Speaking from the heart here; this stuff matters to me way more than any accolade you receive while playing, any trophy you’ll ever hold. There’s nothing quite like helping out your fellow man! I’m beyond proud of my club and my boys for doing such selfless acts of kindness. Hofstra Rugby is creating a new culture, a new community, and new family by these kind acts! So glad to be apart of this and seeing my boys make a difference in someone else’s life! THIS IS WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT! MMF!"
