from Cal Women’s Rugby:
The Cal Women’s rugby team played a strong second half but couldn’t overcome a slow start in a loss to Stanford on Sunday February 28th. Throughout the first half, the Bears struggled against Stanford’s fast backs and quick turnovers, and stymied themselves with penalties and sloppy play from both forwards and backs. Stanford capitalized on Cal’s mistakes to jump to an early 36-5 lead at the half. The Bears came out with a more intense and organized defense in the second half and managed to hold Stanford to one try, but were unable to mount a comeback. Flanker Zully Camacho scored a try in the first half after flanker Kathy Sprowles blocked a kick, prop and captain Julia Diskin punched in a try in the second half, and eight man Jen Sever converted a penalty kick to round out Cal’s points.
