Witter Rugby Field

Friday was supposed to be a grand season finale for Cal, but rival Stanford spoiled its Senior Day celebration, beating the Bears 1-0 in just under 93 minutes of action.

The Bears will finish off their season with Senior Day against rival Stanford this Friday at Witter Rugby Field. The blue and gold will be desperate to make a comeback and send their veteran players off with a big win over their rivals.

On a beautiful Saturday morning, the Cal rugby squad began the 2021 season with a 38-27 triumph over old rival BYU.

After a rough start, the Bears turned it on. Cal, which looked like the better team for the rest of the match, equalized in the 26th minute when Evan Davila’s bouncing shot found the back of the net.

Estrada’s goal was, in part, thanks to Cal’s understanding of UCLA’s style of play, which includes pressing and skipping lines when the Bruins’ defenders are under pressure.

Should the Bears emerge victorious in their next slate of matchups, they’ll cement themselves as one of the best teams in the Pac-12.

After an already challenging year for Cal women’s soccer, the Bears are bracing for what may be their toughest season to date.

In the last installment of the Big Clasico, back in November of 2019, Cal upset then-No. 4 Stanford 1-0 in Palo Alto. The Cardinal will no doubt be keen to redeem themselves.

After around 450 days of waiting, Cal will play its first official game of the 2020-21 women’s soccer season against Oregon State on Friday, February 26th.
