While many Cal fans, including yours truly (although I still need to figure out some details on the drive down to UNC), have September 2nd circled on their calendars since that is the first Cal Football game of the new school year, several Cal Fall Olympic sports will have already started well before then.
For the 2017–18 school year, Cal Women’s Soccer will once again kick things off first. The Golden Bears have a home match vs. UC Irvine on August 18th. They will then host Santa Clara on August 20th.
Cal Field Hockey will face off against Syracuse on August 25th.
