Nor Cal Email

Hello NorCal Alums,
Sparky’s Wine and Dine a week from this Saturday on Oct. 17th and is nearly sold out so be sure to make your reservations before seats are gone. Sparky’s Touchdown Tailgate at Stanford is in two weeks down on the Farm at Stanford prior to the Devils game with the Cardinal.

ASU didn’t perform too well last weekend on the gridiron, coming up short to Oregon State 28-17 in what can only be called a letdown. This week the Devils should get back to winning ways as they face Washington State in Pullman.

There are many ASU teams visiting NorCal in the next few weeks so please see our calendar below and try and catch the Sun Devils in action and support the maroon and gold!

Go Devils!
