Army West Point Athletics
Feature Friday: Brothers XV
April 15, 2016 | Men's Rugby
Feature Friday highlights the tremendous personal stories our coaches and cadet-athletes have to share on a weekly basis. Each Friday, a new feature story will be prominently highlighted on GoArmyWestPoint.com. The features will include multi-media pieces, as well as written stories by media outlets and the Army West Point athletic communications staff.
Although men's rugby has only been recently adopted by ODIA and elevated to varsity status, its history at the U.S. Military Academy stems back to the 1960's. Those on the current roster don't only join the Long Gray Line, but the brotherhood of Army West Point Rugby. Being a member of the rugby brotherhood continues long after you step off the pitch for the final time.
"For he today that sheds his blood with me shall be my brother." - Henry V
