Dear Temple News,
Where is the love for the men and women of Temple’s rugby teams? Not only did both teams win the championship in their respective division this season, but the women’s team went in as the eigth seed to completely blow away their competition. As a Journalism major and a rugby player of many years, I think it’s a travesty that these teams did not receive even a mention of their victories in this paper. I know that rugby is only a club sport, but how many Temple teams get recognition every week if only for their official sports team status and regardless of their record? I would like to extend my congratulations to my teammates, a group of girls who worked harder in the last season than some teams work their entire existance, and I hope that in the spring we will see more of the same- along with the appropriate coverage by student journalists.
Thanks,
Melissa Kelly
