GRR: College Men
The defending DIAA champion UC Davis Aggies opened up their 2016 season with an impressive 53-7 defeat of Sacramento State.
Despite changing coaches and some upheaval within the team as a result, Davis looked on point as Sacramento State struggled with not having all of their players - classes have not resumed at the school so some players had not returned.
The University of Utah came back with a torrid second half to beat Arizona 39-31 in the opening weekend of PAC Rugby Conference play.
Arizona, which welcomed back four players from the USA U20 camp, stormed to a first=half lead, exposing some weak tackling on the part of the Utes.
But Utah came back in the second half, getting back to their attacking pattern.
