Vance's Late Goal Lifts Toros Past Sonoma State, 1-0


ROHNERT PARK, Calif. -- Redshirt freshman #Britney Vance# collected a cross from the right side after sliding in behind host Sonoma State's defense in the 83rd minute, and put her shot past the SSU keeper and into the net to give the visiting Toros a key 1-0 win over the Seawolves this afternoon at Seawolf Soccer Field.
The teams would play a fairly slow-paced first half with only eight shots attempted between the sides.  Play picked up in the second 45 with the Toros pushing back on a 'bend, but don't break' Sonoma defense. 

After playing overtime in each of their last three home games, the Seawolves appeared to be heading to another extra period before CSUDH finally broke through.

The game's lone goal would come at the 83:19 mark when #Jessica Murphy#'s cross from the right side was met by Vance, who slid behind the Sonoma defense and booted it in. 

Sonoma State had an opportunity to score in the waning moments, but a breakaway shot by Tracy Webster went just over the goal.

#Alyssa Congdon# earned the shutout for the Toros, though, in a credit to her defensive line, she did not have to make a save.   SSU's Alexis Sciacqua made four saves in the defeat.

The Toros held a 16-9 overall advantage in shots taken, but the Seawolves led 6-1 in corners, several of which came in the final five minutes.  Fouls were fairly even (11-10 in favor of CSUDH) and both teams drew one yellow card.

CSUDH looks to continue its win streak when the Toros travel to Humboldt State on Sunday.
