WWU Rugby welcomed its largest alumni turnout in years for the annual Alumni Game at the deWilde Rugby & Polo Fields. In classic Bellingham rain, former players showed they still had it, outscoring the current squad 70–35 in a high-paced match featuring 12 tries. Highlights included strong performances from Max Stone, Kyle Peter, and MLR player Aiden Kerr. Big thanks to the WRA for sponsoring and Chuckanut Bay RFC for hosting!

This past weekend, our program proudly represented at the National Men’s Collegiate 7s Championship at the Westwick Rugby Grounds, hosted by Kansas University. Entering the tournament, we knew we had a young, fast, and highly skilled side. While our talent was undeniable, our lack of competitive 7s play leading into the tournament presented a challenge as we transitioned from the XVs format. Still, our squad embraced the opportunity to compete on the national stage—and they delivered a performance full of pride, resilience, and promise.

The WWU Men's 7s rugby team has arrived in Kansas, ready to face the immense challenge of defending their national championship. The squad has prepared thoroughly and enters the tournament with high expectations.

Grab your cleats and join your Western Rugby family on the pitch! As a valued member of our Western Rugby community, you're invited to the Western Rugby Alumni Annual General Meeting and Alumni Match on May 31st.
