Toreros open with challenging slate against Western New Mexico and UC Davis

For sports fans, September means just one thing: football is back.

From Pop Warner to the professional ranks, the game dominates the national sports landscape every fall, grabbing the attention of fans with its acrobatic catches, pad-rattling hits, and late-game heroics.

Here on the campus of the University of San Diego, it is no different, as the home team opens another season in Torero Stadium.

This year’s team will look to build on arguably the best season in school history, as the 2016 Toreros won their eighth league title in the past 12 seasons and finished at number 19 in national polls.
