I would have to agree, that's a great scheduel! Nice recruiting tool for a "small school" program.

Brother Champ Kind,
I don't have San Francisco States 2007-08 schedule, but I would put our typical schedule up against Findley's most years. It was pretty much a D1 schedule.Most years, we would have duals against Cal Bakersfield, Cal Poly, Fresno, Stanford, Oregon St, Oregon, Portland, Fullerton and which ever midwest or eastern team who were making a west coast trip (in past years Iowa St., Penn, Illinois, Ohio St. Temple, Mich.St) and tournaments include Las Vegas Invit. , Midlands and we host the Calif Collegiate Championships (all Calif. 4 yr schools + occasional out of state teams such as Nebraska-Kearny). Granted, the schedule will weaken as more CA powers like Fresno & San Jose St. are killed, but I think we have had a great schedule for a non-scholarship D2.
