Maybe I am preparing myself mentally for recapping the Cal Football vs. Oregon State game tomorrow, but this is perhaps one of the most pessimistic “Golden Medal” post that I have written. Sadly, there is a non-zero chance that all of the Cal Fall Olympic sports (but really, we can lump football with them) will miss the postseason for the first time in a long time.
While the more individualistic Cal Women’s Cross Country should make the postseason as a squad (although there are too little races during the season to really say) from preseason expectation, I am not sure if I should be concerned that neither Bethan Knights and Brie Oakley (Cal’s clear top two runners) have represented the Cal Bears in any meet this fall yet.
