Rivalries
Like other sports teams at Williams College, both the men's and women's teams have a long-standing rivalry with Amherst College. Traditionally the teams compete twice a year, with the losing team forfeiting its jerseys to the victors. Amherst Jerseys are prized collector's items among White Dawgs and Olde Fartes.
The WWRFC has a long standing tradition of wearing their jerseys 24/7 the week prior to their annual game with Amherst. This way, if the WWRFC has lost, Amherst receives perceivably smelly and muddy jerseys. Additionally, at the beginning of the week, the saying goes, "the next shirt you put on will be an AmHerst jersey."
