The National Small College Rugby Organization (NSCRO) National Sevens Championship is being held in conjunction with the Penn Mutual Collegiate Rugby Championship. Penn Mutual has been an avid supporter of this organization.
There are 8 Qualifier 7s tournaments leading to the 2016 National Small College Rugby 7s Championship. NSCRO prefers that 8 or more NSCRO teams enter the Qualifier Bracket with 6 teams being the minimum requirement in order for the winner to qualify for the NSCRO National 7s Championship. With the exception of St. Mary’s College of Maryland, who received an at large bid, the other teams won National qualfiers.
