GRR: College Men
Cal State Long Beach sits clear atop the Gold Coast after an impressive 72-12 defeat of Grand Canyon University Saturday.
GCU was hit with some injuries but still fielded a big, powerful forward pack. Battling the heat of an Arizona February afternoon the Long Beach 49ers worked the ball wide as much as possible, and the tactic worked nicely.
LSU is in an excellent position to win the Red River Conference after beating previously undefeated Oklahoma 43-12 Saturday.
The Tigers broke open a fairly close game just before halftime with a try from prop Christian Brower that, with fullback Alec Miller’s conversion, made it 22-7.
Utah and UCLA both won in PAC Rugby Conference action Saturday, but it's the Utes now along atop the standings.
UCLA had all sorts of challenges with a tough-minded Arizona team. The Wildcats may be winless, but they battled. UCLA went up 10-0, but Arizona stormed back to get within three at 15-12. UCLA slotted a late penalty to seal it 18-12.
Moraga, Calif.- BYU edged St. Mary’s 30-29 in a weird game Saturday in Moraga.
The Cougars looked much the stronger side in the first 65-70 minutes, but a late surge by the Gaels put the result in doubt.
Here are the Men's DI college rugby games this weekend.
