GRR: California
Pool Play is over at the Men’s CRC Saturday and the teams that have been there before showed their class.
BERKELEY (Cal Rugby Release) – Jack Clark, a football and rugby player for the Golden Bears from 1976-78 who has won 26 combined national collegiate championships since becoming head rugby coach for the Golden Bears in 1984, will be inducted into the University of California Athletic Hall of Fame this autumn.
Cal came back from a 29-19 deficit with three converted tries in the final ten minutes to beat BYU 40-29 in the Varsity Cup final, shocking most rugby observers and the crowd at South Field in Provo, Utah.
Well with all the talk of playoffs and championships and the like, there’s the little matter of the game in Provo.
Could this be the year that it all gets shaken up?
You wonder. Here in the Varsity Cup, the same four teams had been in the semifinals for the last three years. That's changed this year as Arkansas State upended Navy to get to the top four. Now, could the run of three-straight BYU v Cal finals be stopped?
It could be.
