rugby-thumbnail

On March 2, 2013, CSUN’s men’s rugby team played its last home game of the season. A crowd of about 50 to 60 people waiting to watch the game assembled in an undesignated area at the south end of the North Field (there were no bleachers). After warm ups and an agreement on which team would receive the ball first and which ends each team would defend, the game against Cal Lutheran began. This current version of the rugby team… Read more


Angels Manager Mike Scioscia’s days are limited

I never thought I would say, write or even think this thought, but Angels manager Mike Scioscia’s time is running out. It’s not just me saying this. Leaving last week’s blowout loss to the Athletics on Tuesday, a common muttering amongst fans was ‘When is Scioscia going to be replaced?’ Leading the Angels since 2000, Scioscia had been the model of consistency in the American League. Currently in his 14th season, he is the longest tenured manager in Angels history…. Read more

By Mark Awad Los Angeles stood still at the end of the fourth quarter with three minutes left as superstar Kobe Bryant went down. Everyone figured hey it’s Kobe he’ll be back. The news broke post-game: Bryant probably tore his achilles heel. As Bryant stood up with crutches and a teary eye he said “I can’t, I can’t walk.” Kobe’s injury sucked the oxygen out of Lakers fans and their playoff hopes, very similar to when Magic Johnson announced his… Read more

Baseball: Matadors prove unfazed down by six, complete comeback in later innings

The Matadors (17-15) rallied during the later innings of Monday’s game against the University of Washington (8-22) to win 8-7 in the bottom of the ninth. Northridge struggled to find its groove on the diamond early on,  allowing the Huskies to build a six-run lead by the fifth inning. Ultimately, CSUN chipped away and countered Seattle’s run by mounting a comeback. Northridge was shut out for four straight innings by Washington pitcher Troy Rallings, who only had two innings under… Read more
