The game was either team’s to take fifteen minutes into the second half, with the San Francisco State University men’s rugby football club and California State University, Chico Wildcats both one score away from each other.

It was here that the visiting Wildcats ran their way into the tryzone to extend their lead 20-12 with a five-point try. The Gators regrouped themselves attempting to anchor their opponents and prevent them from re-entering the tryzone. If the Wildcats were an inch away from the tryzone, the Gators turned that inch into yards. But it was too little, too late. 

The Gators walked off the field with a 34-12 loss to the Wildcats, but their performance on senior day was beyond what the score indicated. Despite the deficit, the home crowd stood by their fighters in purple and gold. A chant of “Let’s Go Gators” began in the stands of over 200 attendees at Cox Stadium. The rugby club kept fighting to the final minute, with the support at home sparking something in them beyond the score. 

“I’m grateful to play for the team, grateful to be a Gator and I’m grateful to play for my brothers,” said senior club secretary Will Hubbell. “I am grateful to die for these people. I love these people to death and I’m just [feeling] endless gratitude for this team.”
