Gash-Gilder, Nadeau Receive NSCRO Postseason Accolades

2019-20 NSCRO ALL-AMERICAN/RISING STARS LIST

BEVERLY, Mass. – Endicott men's rugby student-athletes Matthew Gash-Gilder (Kalispell, Mont.) and Zachary Nadeau (Rutland, Mass.) have earned postseason honors from the National Small College Rugby Organization (NSCRO), as announced by the league yesterday.

Gash-Gilder claimed NSCRO All-America honors for the second time in his career, while Nadeau was tabbed to the NSCRO Rising Stars Team for the second time in his career as well.

The NSCRO has over 6,500 active men's collegiate student-athletes. Student-athletes for this year's awards were primarily considered based on club nominations submitted to NSCRO and reports from NSCRO scouts at their fall playoffs.

This year's All-American squad includes seven 2019 All-Americans along with five 2019 Rising Stars plus 13 new selections. Meanwhile, the Rising Stars saw four student-athletes from 2019 receive the honor again and 21 new selections also make the squad.

NSCRO All-America recipients have been determined by the NSCRO selection committee to be the preeminent collegiate student-athletes within NSCRO. The 25 All Americans have demonstrated their skills, commitment, and physical dominance that have made them stand out among their peers.

Each All-American will be sent an NSCRO All-American t-shirt and a gold medal in recognition of this honor, while the Rising Stars will be sent a Rising Star t-shirt and a silver medal.
