Toros Turn Up The Offense In Win Over Seawolves

Tracy Webster scored her fifth goal of the season on Sunday
CARSON, Calif-  Cal State Dominguez Hills scored four times in the second half alone to stun Sonoma State 6-2 on Sunday afternoon in Carson.  It was the second straight loss for the 12th-ranked Seawolves as they fall to 9-3-0, 5-2-0 CCAA.  The Toros improve to 8-5-0, 6-2-0 CCAA.

Melanie DeSalvo scored the first goal of the game for Dominguez Hills in the sixth minute off an assist by Paige Peel.  The Seawolves would be quick to answer when, just four minutes later, Tracy Webster netted her fifth goal of the season via a Megan Cunningham assist.

Just over two minutes before halftime, the Seawolves took their only lead of the contest when Kayce Brawley scored off a Katie Parucha feed to make it 2-1.  The strike was Brawley's fifth goal of the season as well.  It looked like the Seawolves would enter the half with a lead, but the Toros had other plans, tying things at two with a Paige Peel goal just seventeen seconds before the break. 

The second half was all Toros.  Though the shot count was close (just 10-9 in favor of CSUDH), four of the Toros' shots found net.  The first two came off the foot of Jessica Murphy to quickly turn a 2-2 tie into a 4-2 Dominguez lead.  In the 73rd minute, Karina Jahn scored her first goal of the season.  Two minutes laster Kelly Vasquez posted her fourth, to make it a 6-2 Toro advantage.

The six goals were easily the most allowed by the Seawolves this season.  Coming into Sunday's match, the Seawolves had allowed just nine goals all season long.

The Seawolves actually out shot the Toros in the game, 19-5.  The shot advantage was 10-5 in favor of Sonoma in the first half.

After a rough weekend, the Seawolves will hope to rebound next weekend when they host Cal State San Bernardino and Cal Poly Pomona.
