School's been out for a few weeks now and I'm just sitting back and relaxing. As I already blogged, we lost at Sweet 16s but I did make it out to Stanford to watch the DI championship games at Final Fours. The Stanford vs. Penn State game was a bit boring to be honest. I've really enjoyed watching Penn State the previous two years but this year it was like neither team could turn it on. It felt more like a game of attrition. As for the Cal vs. BYU game, that was more than a bit boring. Cal won and did so while playing some very pretty rugby but there was nothing truly exciting. At least the women's game had some nailbiting moments even if neither team was playing its best. In the men's game, Cal seemed to score before I even knew the game had started. In a championship there should at least be some chance that either team could win but BYU might as well not been on the field for all the fight they put up.
As for end of the year news, we had our banquet and said goodbye to our seniors. We also had officer elections and yours truly is the new president. Whee. Time for some tough love.
For anyone who's interested, I think we and the All Blues are putting together a joint 7s team. If you happen to be in the Berkeley area and want in, then contact me and I'll get you in touch with the right people. They'll be playing in the Palo Alto 7s tournament and the Midnight Rugby tournament in Las Vegas.
Lastly, a friend of mine and a former Cal player is looking to put together a team in the South Bay around San Jose. If that sparks some interest, lemme know and I'll get you in contact with her.

really? Near San Jose? Hell I'd be interested and I'm sure a number of the UCSC alum would be as well.
