The Bruin rugby team has been a club sport since 1982, but the team has a proud history which dates back to 1934.
The UCLA Rugby team may only be a club team, but most rugby teams are. It doesn't change the fact that the UCLA Rugby team had the opportunity to play for the Collegiate Rugby Championship today against three-time defending champ UC Berkeley.
The Bruin rugby team had a great season by all measures. They were 17-3 in the regular season and they entered the Collegiate Rugby Championship tournament as the top seed overall.
Unfortunately, those three losses all came at the hands of one team: UC Berkeley.
