GRR: College Men
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>>
Saint Mary’s defeated BYU 60-29 in Provo Saturday in a game where turnovers absolutely killed the Cougars’ chances.
Most of the Saint Mary’s try-scoring sequences started with the Gaels on defense, and either a mistake by BYU or an excellent play by Saint Mary’s—often both—result in points for the Californians.
Not a massive weekend in DIAA rugby but a few key matchups.
Chico State and Sacramento State has become one to note.
Check back for scores.
Cal defeated Central Washington 48-19 under the lights in Berkeley on Friday.
The Bears hit hard and early and stymied CWU's initial opportunities, and it was, overall, an aggressive defensive performance from Cal and some quick ball movement that saw them through.
It is a meaningful but small group of games this weekend in D1A as Spring Break hits a few teams.
