Women’s Soccer Loses Heartbreaker
September 18, Oxnard CA
On Friday, September 18, the OC Women’s Soccer Team lost a heartbreaker at home to L.A. Mission College. The Lady Condors dominated possession throughout the game but found themselves down 1-0 at half-time. OC came out on fire in the second half and scored in 45 seconds. The play started with Ashley French winning possession at midfield, quickly finding June Guillen who fed a ball through to Priscilla Villa who blasted a shot past the Mission keeper to tie the score.
As the Condors continued to dominate possession they pushed players forward to find the winning goal. Unfortunately, Mission found a gap in the Condor defense and scored their second goal with about 15 minutes left in the game. The Condors continued to pressure the Mission goal and appeared to tie the game when Villa headed in a Melisa Chavez cross. Villa was ruled offside and the goal was disallowed. Undaunted the Condors continued to attack but just couldn’t find the tying goal and the game ended with LA Mission winning 2-1.
