GRR: CSU Long Beach
Long Beach State won its opening game of the Gold Coast season, beating Arizona State 34-13.
The social media post kind of says it all for Cal State Long Beach—first conference game in two years.
The 49ers face off with Arizona State this weekend after a long layout. Oh, they've been playing rugby, facing off with UC Davis and Saint Mary's, and even winning the conference 7s tournament in the fall, but this is different.
Ray Nelson was a points machine and a dynamic fullback for the USA.
Capped 25 by the USA at a time when the Eagles didn't play a lot every year, Nelson was born in Glasgow, Scotland, and he played his first rugby games there. He was talented and went on to play for Scotland at age-grade levels and was also skilled in 7s.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has caused new and innovative ways to keep the rugby flame burning.
Our College Player Of The Week this week is Cal State Long Beach captain and flyhalf Steven Bodley.
