The team (3-3) lost today to #6 Pacific by two goals. They have also lost to #7 UCSB & #11 UC Davis by 3 points each. I recall Cal losing to UOP before but never to these fellow UC schools. I'm a UCSB alum so I think that I would have noticed losing to the Gauchos...Defense appears weaker than normal, yielding huge goal totals in the last two losses. For Cal to lose to number 11 UC Davis by three goals likely means the Bears will fall in the rankings.
Bears do have 10 newbies (2 junior transfers + 8 frosh) being integrated into the lineup. Senior goalie Carelli returns in case the coach decides not to stay with frosh Weinberg. I am unaware of the team injury situation so that needs to be factored in, too.
