Re: the "find" - God bless google. Biggest time waster of my life.
In reading the UC Davis magazine article I learned that Debbie Meyer attended Davis for awhile. (She apparently attended a LOT of schools, but never quite got around to getting a degree from any of them....) My own fleeting and underwhelming sports dreams took place in the pool, not on the track. I recall seeing her swim at the Hickey Gym pool when she was a student at American River.
(As much as I hate to say it, the Bears usually do pretty well against UBC. This year they split with each team winning at home..Cal 24, UBC 22 at home and UBC 28, Cal 24 on the road.)
I do love the years when little St. Mary's College beats them....then when people tell me Cal is the top program in the nation I can say, "They aren't even the top college program in Contra Costa County."
In men's golf the Ags finished 8th with 881 strokes, while CSUS finished 14th with 918 at the El Macero Classic. Causeway Cup score is now UCD 57.5, CSUS 17.5. The Causeway dual track meet is on April 26th in Davis, softball has a make-up game on April 30th at Sac and baseball still has a make up game to be scheduled if calendars allow.
Preston Neumayr was drafted by the then Kansas City Kings as the 14th pick in Round 8 of the 1983 draft. As I recall he put off medical school a year to test the NBA. I don't think he was around by opening day....he is now a doctor in the Bay Area, so he landed on his feet.
Ags defeated Hornets in beach volleyball today, 4-1. Running Causeway Cup score is now 52.5 to 17.5 and we got rid of the pesky decimal problem. Next event is mens' golf next weekend at El Macero.
This is actually the 7th year that they have had beach volleyball. They play in the Big West (as does CSU-Bakersfield) (Surprise to me as I looked at the Big West website - UCSB does NOT have beach volleyball.) Hornets are struggling this year with a 1-12 record.
Aggie women defeated Sac, 5-2, in tennis today at Sac. That's nice because since UCD clinched this year's Cup three weeks ago the Hornets have won in baseball and in women's golf. Current score is 50.83 - 17.5. Next up is beach volleyball at Sac's "home" court in Folsom this coming Friday, the 5th. It would be nice to win that and clear up some of this annoying decimal point mess. Over the weekend Davis defeated Sac in beach volleyball in a non-Causeway event at the Big West Challenge in San Luis Obispo.
Thanks...I watched the end of that game and then switched to watch the end of the UCI-KSU game. A cousin in Iowa City was at the game. I did not hear from her until late in the evening indicating she was finally able to breathe. Mercer came to play. Iowa better wake up.
Iowa is my back-up power five team....and right now #15 Mercer is giving the #2 Hawkeye women a game in Iowa City. This is NOT the 15 over 2 upset I want in this tournament.
Out of the mall and out of Davis, like Nation's Giant Hamburger.
Didn't the Grad try to run a place just across the river from Sac State many, many years ago? As I recall is was at the eastern end of the Baby Golden Gate pedestrian bridge in Campus Commons...a residential condominium community...combine that with a commuter campus and it was a long shot at best.
