GRR: California
In one of the bigger games of the college calendar this month, Cal defeated UCLA 36-7 to tighten their grip on GRR’s #1 ranking.
Cal shut out Arizona 46-0 Saturday in Berkeley, setting down an early-season market for the Bears.
It was a rainy day at Witter Rugby Field, which wasn't the kind of weather either team preferred, but that's what they got.
One of the things college rugby fans will be seeing as we move into winter is more rugby action from the West Coast among D1A teams.
Just two weeks after pulling off a late comeback win over Cal, Saint Mary's won in impressive fashion over their Northern California rivals to take their D1A quarterfinal Saturday in Moraga.
Cal Poly visited Cal for Round 1 in the Western Bracket and the Mustangs started the game on the front foot and using their kicking game to test the Bears.
A Coby Baker penalty attempt drifted wide, and after a few minutes Cal finally got into Mustangs territory. A short pass while being hit by Evan Weigold to Oliver Newall put Newall through for a 25-meter jaunt and try.
