GRR: College Men
In a tense, back-and-forth D1A clash of Wildcats, Central Washington held off Arizona 19-17.
Both teams had opportunities to put this game away and both teams will look longingly at scoring opportunities they didn't take, and in a sense this result settled nothing except to establish that Arizona and Central Washington are, at the moment, essentially equal.
BYU defeated Cal in impressive fashion 59-26 Saturday in Berkeley.
The Cougars played a very accurate and fast game, showcasing some impressive catch-pass skills and minimizing mistakes that can be so damaging to a Cal opponent.
We've got a lot going on this week in college rugby.
Cal State Long Beach is now in D1A and it seems like they fit in quite well.
The 49ers marked their move up in the fall with games against what was probably their toughest conference opponents, Saint Mary's and Cal Poly. Not surprisingly, they lost. But last week's 35-15 win over UC Santa Barbara showed that they are most certainly a team to watch in this league.
The Rugby Network will showcase Central Washington at Arizona as their collegiate Game of the Week.
