Colton Strickler covers the MLR Draft, Round 1 of Super Rugby Aotearoa, and touches on the San Diego Legion’s signing of Chris Robshaw in “The Breakdown’. After that, he talks to former Raptor Cristian Sarmento about his University of Northern Colorado football tackling records, his rugby career, and fishing in Alaska. Colton wraps up the show with some ‘Required Reading’ on former University of California, Berkley rugby player Robert Paylor’s incredible story.
