GRR: Western Washington
University of Oregon pulled off a bit of a shocker this past weekend, beating #5-ranked Western Washington 17-15.
This was not expected, as WWU has been on top of the NCRC for quite a while and just beat a strong Boise State side 55-0.
Western Washington opened their NCRC season with a bit of a statement result, shutting out Boise State 55-0.
Boise State is suffering from some injuries, but this was still a head-turning scoreline.
Former Canada U18 and WWU freshman George Pritchard scored two tries and added five conversions in his conference debut, making his tally 20 points on the day.
Western Washington University shut out the University of Oregon to win CRAA's D1AA 7s Sunday in Bellingham, Wash.
WWU's defense was outstanding all weekend, as they allowed only 34 points in six games. Oregon's defense was equally as good, and in fact they came into the final having shut out four straight opponents, including San Jose State in the semifinal (31-0).
