On a rainy, windy afternoon in southern California, Butler lost a mud-filled battle with Pioneer League opponent San Diego, 29-7.
The wet field conditions had a negative impact on each team’s offense to start the game, as the two squads traded a total of four punts in a scoreless opening 15 minutes. However, the Bulldogs’ passing game showed signs of life with a 19-yard completion to sophomore wideout Chet Yardley on a drive that eventually fell flat, ending in a fourth-down stand for the Toreros.
