Wake Forest Ruggers to Coach NCRU U-23 Women's Select Side

Wake Forest senior Andrew Jessiman and junior Matt Gottbrecht have been selected to coach the NCRU U-23 Women's Select Side which will compete in the South U-23 Women's LAU tournament on Nov. 3 in Columbus, GA. Andrew and Matt have both been sidelined for the past year with serious injuries and have served as defacto assistant coaches to the Wake Forest team during that time period. Both have high level rugby experience- Andrew was a member of the NCRU Men's College All-Stars in 2006 and has played with the San Jose Seahawks, a Division I Men's Club in San Jose, CA. Matt played on the NCRU Men's College All-Stars in 2205 and was invited to the All-South selection camp in 2006. Matt also represented North Carolina in the U-19 Challenge Cup in Baltimore, MD in 2006. Matt and Andrew have thrown themselves headlong into their coaching responsibilities and are expecting great success at the LAU Tournament on Nov. 3.
