Soccer to scrimmage against national team
Some teams have harder scrimmages than others. But they don’t get much tougher than those of the UCLA men’s soccer team, which will face the full U.S. National Team today at the Home Depot Center in Carson as part of its 2005 spring season. The national team is currently training at the site and four former Bruins – Jimmy Conrad, Kevin Hartman, Frankie Hejduk and Nick Rimando – are part of the training camp. UCLA will likely field multiple players who have been on the U.S. junior national team.
FOOTBALL: Washington State coach Bill Doba signed a two-year contract extension that will keep him at the head of the program through the 2009 season, Cougars athletic director Jim Sterk announced Monday. Doba has gone 15-9 in two seasons as the Cougars’ coach, but went just 5-6 in 2004.
