Santa Clara Opens 2016 With Win
Santa Clara University started their 2016 season impressively with a 42-29 defeat of Stanford Friday.

DI Games This Weekend
Several men’s DI college teams saw action this weekend in preseason warmups.
Arizona defeated Grand Canyon University 59-3 in an impressive first run-out for the Wildcats. Meanwhile, St. Mary’s was humbled in a 44-3 loss to the SFGG men’s club, a game that was a good education for the Gaels.
Utah Schedule a Tough One

Cal Eyes Tough 2016
The University of California Golden Bears have confirmed their schedule for the Winter/Spring of 2016.
The schedule culminates, in 15s, with the Varsity Cup, and ends en toto with the CRC 7s invitational in Chester, Pa. But there are a few - as they say in England - banana skins along the way.
Arizona State Tough Schedule Rivals Others'
