College Men
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.
We said it was kind of a quiet weekend and so it was.
The Mid American Conference has named its All-Conference selections.
A 1st team and a 2nd team were selected, along with honorable mentions. Seven players received their second-straight All-Conference nods: Ivan Delgado, Angelo Eklou, Chris Jensvold, Parker Anderson, and Beau Abbott.
Cal Poly followed up one big-scoring game with another as the Mustangs beat Santa Clara 78-21.
Led by another impressive showing from captain and inside center Coby Baker and hard running and strong defense from No. 8 Ryan Wenstrom, Cal Poly improved to 2-0 in the California Conference.
