When the going gets tough, apparently the coach gets up and
quits.
Last year, former coach of the men’s rugby team Jake Pike
had enough.
A tumultuous season and getting smashed 72-3 by Cal Poly San
Luis Obispo was too much to bear, and influenced Pike in his
decision to resign and pursue an alternative career choice midway
through last season.

As the music from Festival Latino kept the mood lively all game,
the UCLA rugby team trampled Cal State Fullerton on Saturday, 50-7,
at UCLA’s North Athletic Field.

When most people think of rugby, T-shirts from American Eagle
and Abercrombie and Fitch are probably what first come to mind. The
UCLA men’s rugby team is now on the path to trying to change
this perception, and the person leading the way is new coach Scott
Stewart.
