GRR: College Men
Led by a very strong defensive effort and a little bit of good fortune, Cal State Long Beach took control of the Gold Coast Men’s DIAA Conference with a 23-0 shutout of Santa Barbara City College Saturday.
Both CSULB and SBCC came into the game boasting high-powered offenses, so Long Beach Head Coach Jason Reynolds looked to neutralize his opponents’ attacking strengths.
Davenport University has been training outside exactly once in the last few months, but it was enough to propel them to an improbable victory over Arkansas State in Jonesboro, Ark. Saturday.
Cal had all sorts of trouble shaking loose UCLA in Saturday's PAC Rugby Conference clash in Los Angeles, but eventually the Bears (ranked #5 by Goff Rugby Report) prevailed over the #37 Bruins 18-12.
