Match Preview- Claremont Colleges

This Saturday USD hosts the Claremont Colleges. Kickoff will be at noon on Manchester Field. The match-up will pit two of the best small schools in the country against each other. The teams were nationally ranked #5 (USD) and #1 (Claremont) respectively after last season.

Claremont will be led by league points leader Matthew Grunglingh, averaging 25 points a game. USD will be led by captain Cameron Miller and Jordan Sandoval now playing flyhalf in the backline. Look for the USD backline to show off their speed and skill this weekend!

Director of Rugby Kevin Eaton on the match up “Claremont are league leaders and have won our conference two years in a row. We were bitterly disappointed to lose to them last season when we had a chance to win on the last play of the match. There is a reason they are the top small school in the country, but there is also a reason we are in the conversation. We look forward to showing that on Saturday.”
