Comments:
This was a semi-final match for the College Division.
UCSD advances to play the winner of Loyola vs. Claremont.
UCSD had a dominating pack, while USC had a dominating
back line. However, UCSD resorted to an inside forwards
game which proved to be the game winning tactic as they
scored a penalty kick and try (missed conversion) in the
final 10 minutes. Both sides played a hard fought match.
Play of the match goes to USC fullback, Blair Estep. In the
opening minutes of the second half Estep took off down the
sideline after receiving a pass. He faked two UCSD backs
then pop kicked. He chased and caught his own kick on the
run, eluded the UCSD fullback and scored a try.
Other notiables, USC missed 11 points in kicks, UCSD missed
a penalty kick in the closing minutes of the match. No
injuries or ejections.
