Wake Takes to Field on Saturday in Preparation for Atlantic Coast Invitational

The Wake Forest Men's Rugby team will get into action on Saturday at Poteat Field as it participates in 7s scrimmages with Virginia Tech, East Carolina, and UNC-Greensboro as it prepares for the Atlantic Coast Invitational on Sept. 11-12 in Greensboro (www.acirugby.com). The scrimmages will be used to work on offensive defensive patterns as well as help the Wake coaching staff make final selections for its 15 man roster for the ACI. Head coach Patrick Kane said that his roster for the ACI has mostly been chosen, but that there are one or two players that he needs to see in action before making the final decision. Additionally, the scrimmages will allow the new crossover athletes who have joined the team to get their first taste of live rugby action. Scrimmages will begin at 1pm and continue through 5pm.
