Football Drops Tight Opener in California
CLAREMONT, Calif. - Football season has arrived for the University of Northwestern, albeit in a different time zone than usual. The Eagles made the trip out to California to open their season at Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Colleges, one of the premier athletics programs in the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. It's the third time the two programs have met, after a home-and-home series was played out in 2018 and 2019, with CMS winning both matchups. Saturday's tilt was the closest yet, but the Stags were able to parlay a strong start with the only two points of the second half to clinch a 19-14 victory in a climate surprisingly cooler than the Twin Cities.
