Blue Ox RFC
The Blue Ox RFC is a competitive men's rugby team that is based out of Saint Paul, Minnesota. The Blue Ox compete in the Men's Collegiate Div. 3 league of the Minnesota Rugby Football Union. The team is a continuance of The Black Sheep RFC, which was a club sport affiliated with the University of St. Thomas (Minnesota). Until in the mid-1990s, team misconduct led to the permanent ban of the sport of rugby at the University of St.Thomas.
