GRR: California Collegiate Conference
With Saint Mary's off gallivanting across the Irish Sea, the rest of the California Conference (DIA) is looking to inch their way closer to the top.
Yes, the Gaels are favored, but there is plenty to play for regardless.
A really competitive conference, a team on tour, and some pre-conference warmups characterize this weekend in Men's D1A and D1AA rugby.
The idea that the USA and Canada should cooperate in developing high-level rugby extends past the national teams, and certainly has a place in the collegiate game; witness then this past weekend's clash between Canadian champions UBC and USA runners-up (spring 2022) Saint Mary's.
Santa Clara, Calif.—The California Conference has announced a significant expansion for the 2022-23 competitive cycle.
While there were only five DIA games on the slate this week, they all had a lot to say about where teams are in the competition.
Cal looked very impressive in defeating Central Washington 48-19 on Friday night. More on the game here>>
