GRR: Varsity Cup
The two favored teams in the Varsity Cup did what they needed to do Saturday, as BYU beat a tenacious UCLA team and Cal just steamrolled Texas.
Cal ran in 16 tries, with Jake Anderson scoring three of them, as they beat the Longhorns 100-7 to make the Varsity Cup semis, where they will host Navy.
Central Washington is into the semifinals of the Varsity Cup after surviving a tough quarterfinal match against Utah at CWU's venue in Ellensburg, Wash.
It was another nail-biter for Navy, and another close win as the Midshipmen defeated Clemson 24-23 Saturday in the Varsity Cup quarterfinals.
Cal gets to jump in - finally, they might say - into the Varsity Cup after a long buildup that included winning the PAC Rugby Conference and defeating St. Mary’s.
The Bears travel to Texas to face the Longhorns, who had to work very hard to put aside Notre Dame a week ago.
Round two of the Varsity Cup and in one half of the bracket we’ve got BYU at UCLA.
The Cougars are on a nice role that has seen them defeat their toughest competition (St. Mary’s twice, Utah, Cal Poly) and then cruise through a couple of three-digit wins in-state.
But now it’s time for business.
