St. Mary's opened up their two-date tour of Arizona with an impressive 73-7 defeat of the University of Arizona Wildcats Friday night in Tucson.
Arizona was missing four players who are at the USA U20 camp, however, this was still a solid Gaels outing. St. Mary's led 30-7 at halftime and exploded for 43 unanswered points in the second half.

St. Mary’s got a bit of a wakeup call this weekend as the Gaels went down 44-3 to the San Francisco Golden Gate men’s club.
This result came after a string of pre-season victories over collegiate opponents. St. Mary’s Head Coach Tim O’Brien said the performance was frustrating - not so much because his team lost, but rather the manner in which they lost.
