Highlights from 2015 Cal Football Training Camp

By Cal Athletics:

The 2015 Cal football training camp came to an end last Saturday but after taking only their second day off since training camp began in early August on Sunday the Bears were back at Kabam Field at California Memorial Stadium for a closed workout Monday. Head coach Sonny Dykes liked much of what he saw during Monday’s workout that featured full team 11-on-11 periods including overtime, third-down, red zone and two-minute drill sessions.

Dykes said that “offensively I thought we executed about as well as we ever have” and “defensively we were in position a lot of times to make some plays” before adding “we got as much out of today as we have out of any practice we’ve had up to this point.”

A few of the highlights are listed below.

7-ON-7

• A 41-yard Jared Goff to Bryce Treggs hookup for a touchdown that featured a sprinting Treggs fully extended to haul in the scoring grab
• Another touchdown pass from Goff for 13 yards to Maurice Harris and one from Chase Forrest to Chad Hansen for six yards
• Interceptions by Trey Turner and Aisea Tongilava, as well as pass breakups from Stefan McClure and Jaylinn Hawkins

THIRD DOWNS

• Success for both the offense and the defense with the offense successful on 5-of-9 third-down attempts and the defense recording both a forced fumble by Tony Mekari and a batted ball at the line of scrimmage from Todd Barr

OVERTIME

• Three consecutive successful scores by the offense on a three-yard touchdown run by Daniel Lasco, a two-yard pass from Forrest to Hansen and a two-yard run by Vic Enwere
• A 33-yard completion from Goff to Kenny Lawler on third-and-21 to set up Lasco’s score on the first drive of the period

RED ZONE

• A touchdown pass from Goff to Lawler for 20 yards on the first play of the period before a 15-yard scoring pass from Ross Bowers to Kanawai Noa later in the period

2-MINUTE DRILL

• A 16-yard touchdown pass from Goff to Stephen Anderson to cap a 62-yard drive that Goff was 4-of-4 for 62 yards on and also included a 31-yard completion to Trevor Davis
• A seven-yard sack by Jonathan Johnson
