GRR: PAC Rugby Conference
Tempe, Ariz. - The Arizona State Sun Devils will face the UCLA Bruins on Saturday in PAC Rugby Conference play.
The Bruins are coming into the game off a good showing in the Dennis Storer Classic and are looking to capitalize on that success.
The University of Southern California has removed the suspension it handed down to the USC men's rugby team last fall.
Cal Rugby scored four tries and held UCLA scoreless to win the final game of the Storer Classic 26-0 Sunday at the UCLA campus.
The Golden Bears swept the four games at the tournament - three on Saturday and one on Sunday.
Arizona beat Santa Clara 43-17 Saturday in the first of two preseason games for the Broncos this weekend.
The Arizona Wildcats got a solid game from Ryan Fitzpatrick, who notched two tries, but Head Coach Sean Duffy said the performance was a bit of a mixed bag.
Santa Clara visits Arizona Saturday in a key warmup for the two teams, as Santa Clara targets a DIA playoff spot and Arizona looks to move up in the PAC Conference.
For Arizona, this will be a chance for Head Coach Sean Duffy’s still very young team to make a statement. Duffy has a deep roster, but many of those players were recruited in the last couple of years.
