Women's rugby team draws national spotlight

When the women's rugby teams from St. Olaf and Macalester hit the field for a recent game outfitted in prom dresses, it drew the attention of ABC's Good Morning America program and the Twin Cities CBS affiliate, WCCO-TV. For the second year the teams have made their matchup more fun — although no less intense — by donning the outdated dresses over their regular rugby uniforms. The St. Olaf club team won the game 25-0.
