- It had a little montage of four photos from the Portland State at Slack game and the caption, "How's that Pac-12 application going?"

Apparently from a tweet (an X?) posted by a PSU fan.

When people ask me why Davis left D-2 I always answer that D2 left UCD. The list of D-2 schools west of the Rockies that dropped football, or moved to then D-1AA, or to D-3, or moved and then dropped football altogether is long.....St. Mary's, Santa Clara, Chico State, San Francisco State, Sonoma State, Humboldt State, CSU-Hayward/East Bay, Cal Lutheran, Azusa-Pacific, CSU-Northridge, Western Washington, Portland State, Sac State....and throw in D-1 schools that dropped football, Pacific, Long Beach....

There are no longer any D-2 football programs in California. I believe the only two on the Pacific Coast are Central Washington and Western Oregon and they play in the Texas centered Lone Star Conference.

(And the College of Idaho Yotes are NAIA.)

Time to go read the Slack State fan site.

Pac 2 conference just sent an invitation to Portland State. Still not accepting calls from Slack.

On another note, Slack has only one thing to play for in three weeks.

Box score has attendance at 10,638.

Ags defeated Hornets in men's soccer this afternoon, 4-2, in a match played in Sacramento. Running Causeway cup score is, I think, UCD 20, CSUS 5. That will certainly change when the spring schedules are announced, and whether or not the powers that be count fall competitions in what is traditionally a winter or spring sport, golf.

Next scheduled Causeway competitions are in men's and women's cross-country when both teams for both schools compete in the NCAA West Regionals on November 15 in Colfax, WA, hosted by Washington State.

Beating Davis might be the only thing Slack has to play for by that time.

Pardon a double post. In a poor internet connection spot.

Pac-12 search committee probably not taking calls from Sac this week.

Only three of the ten former Pac-12 teams won this weekend; Oregon, UCLA and Colorado, and Colorado's win was over former Pac-12 opponent Arizona.

Going into this weekend:
ACC
Stanford 1-2, 2-4
Cal 0-3, 3-3

Big Ten
Oregon 3-0, 6-0
Washington 2-2, 4-3
USC 1-3, 3-3
UCLA 0-4, 1-5

Big 12
Arizona State 2-1, 5-1
Colorado 2-1, 4-2
Arizona 1-2, 3-3
Utah 1-2, 4-2

The "Conference of Champions" is 13-20 in their new conferences. The California schools are 2-12.

UCD women's golf finished the three round Molly Invitational in a tie for 4th place of 11 teams with a score of 884 strokes or 20 over par. Sac ended up in 8th place at 901 strokes and 37 over par.

Diving further into asterisk scoring, the Causeway score is (?) UCD 15, CSUS 5. That may change when the spring schedules are announced, and whether or not the powers that be count fall competition in what are traditionally winter or spring sports. The UCD website does not include the fall golf events.

The next event, (on the posted schedules for both schools) is a fall softball game this coming Saturday in Sacramento.

EDIT: October 7. Neither school posted results for the October 5th fall softball game. All is right with the world.

Box score has the attendance at 2,031.

Davis men's golf finished the Ram Master Invitational in 13th place of 16 teams with a score of 15 strokes over par. Sac ended up tied for 7th at 3 over. Ags just could not recoer from a disastrous 14 over par first round.

We now go into asterisk scoring. Causeway score is (?) UCD 10, CSUS 5. That may change when the spring schedules are announced, and whether or not the powers that be count fall competition in what are traditionally winter or spring sports.

And we can add more asterisks after the women's golf teams compete in the Molly Collegiate open, a fall golf tournament hosted by ACC member California on September 30 and October 1 in Seaside.

After two rounds of the Ram Master Invitational Davis men's golf is in 14th of 18 teams at 17 over par. CSUS is in 8th place at 1 over par. Play continues with the third of three rounds tomorrow.

Women’s volleyball final: UCD 3, CSUS 1.

Belated edit - been on vacation: Causeway score is UCD 10, CSUS 0. Next event is men's golf on September 17-18 at the Ram Masters Invitational in Ft. Collins, CO.

Eastern Washington fell to non-scholarship Drake in OT at home today.

Aggies opened the 2024-25 Causeway competition this evening with a 2-0 victory in women’s soccer in a game played in Davis. Causeway score is UCD 5, CSUS 0. Next event is volleyball on September 10 in Davis.

In other Causeway news UCD has posted the men’s golf schedule for the 2024-25 season and CSUS has posted their schedule for Fall 2024. The teams are both scheduled to compete in the Ram Masters Invitational in Ft. Collins, Colorado hosted by Colorado State on September 17-18. While Sac has not posted a winter and spring schedule for 2025, the UCD schedule include the El Macero Classic on April 11-13, an event in which both schools usually participate.

Women's and men's basketball added to schedule.

Ah - google says we do, or at least we did in 2023-24:

Boxing
The UC Davis boxing club competes in the National Collegiate Boxing Association (NCBA) Western Division. The team competes primarily against schools in Northern California and Nevada. Open tryouts are held every quarter. Members of the team will be trained by coach Hector Lopez - a former USA Team qualifier.
