Football takes on tough WOU
It doesn’t get any easier for the Lumberjacks when they host a very talented Western Oregon team this week, but the Jacks’ resolve should help them put on another strong showing in front of the home crowd. The Lumberjacks and Wolves square off in a Great Northwest Athletic Conference matchup at 6 p.m. Saturday.
Volleyball home for more league matches
Three in a row is nice, but not quite enough to satisfy the Lumberjack volleyball team. Humboldt State hopes to build on its modest streak this week in a pair of matches against California Collegiate Athletic Association opponents.
Cal State Monterey Bay is first to arrive, taking on the Jacks at 7 p.m. Friday. San Francisco State will make its first appearance in the new arena Saturday at the same time.
Women’s Soccer puts unbeaten streak on the line
Looking to build on its current seven-game unbeaten streak, the HSU women’s soccer team travels to Rohnert Park for Wednesday’s 4 p.m. CCAA game against Sonoma State. The Lumberjacks return home for Friday’s 4:30 p.m. game against Cal State Los Angeles, another counter in the conference standings.
Men’s Soccer plays three this week
Two more CCAA games are on the men’s soccer schedule this week, starting with Wednesday’s 4 p.m. game on the road against Sonoma State, followed by Friday’s 7 p.m. contest against Cal State Los Angeles at home. HSU wraps up the week with a non-league game against UC Santa Cruz, scheduled for noon on Sunday in Redwood Bowl.
Cross Country trains for the trails
After a brief foray into the road-racing realm at Saturday’s Prefontaine 10K, the HSU men’s and women’s cross country teams take a week off from competition to get ready for their next trails race. The Jacks will next be in action on Oct. 4 when they travel to Salem, Ore. for the Charles Bowles Invitational hosted by Willamette University.
