USA Club News

The Men's Club Championship contenders are locked in place following a full weekend of Division I, II and III playoffs in Austin, Texas and Columbia, S.C.

The top four teams from each division will have two weeks to prepare before taking the National stage at Infinity Park, Glendale (Colo.) on June 5-6.

Advancing in Division I, 2009 runners up Las Vegas will have a shot at redemption when they face Life University in the semifinals on June 5. The Blackjacks make their return trip to Glendale after knocking off Olympic Club 31-16 on Sunday.

Also squaring off in the DI are Belmont Shore and Palmer. Belmont defeated fellow California side Santa Monica 32-23, while Palmer held off the Norfolk Blues to book their ticket to Championships.

In Division II, Snake River will go head-to-head with Tampa Krewe in the semifinals after blanking Fort Worth in the quarterfinals. San Francisco Golden Gate also keeps its Championship hopes alive following a hard fought 38-19 victory over the Greater Omaha Area Touring Side (GOATS) and will take on Doylestown on June 5.

The Division III match-ups feature OMBAC vs. Virginia and St. Louis Royals versus Cedar Rapids.

All schedules and results are detailed below.
