This will be great to try out new things and put some more games under the belts of our rookies. The title will be hard to defend as Dartmouth and Radcliffe are also used to being Sweet Sixteen teams, but we are really looking forward to going up to Yale for an exciting weekend.

Our success depends so much on how we play as a team of 15. We are not a team of individuals. What makes us so strong is how we play together. Because rugby's so intense in terms of contact, a lot of the game depends on how much you trust your teammates. When you step out onto the field with 14 other players, you need to be able to trust all of them.
