They are a club sport, but I believe they either did or still do play in Div. 2. They were ranked a couple of years ago, but are currently unranked.

Iona Rugby takes 4th place in Northeast finals. A galiant effort by the Gaels but, a multiple of key starters injured, was too much to over come as they lost to #14th ranked Bentley on Sunday. Iona finishes 8-2 for the year. Iona put themselves on the D-2 Rugby map by winning the Metro league. Bob Sweeney, a rugger from the early years of Iona rugby and in the Iona Rugby "Wall of Fame" came up from New Hampshire to join the Iona Nation fans.
