Lady Yellowjackets Routed at Sonoma State (Sept. 26, 2003)
Box Score

ROHNERT PARK, CA – Two days after almost knocking off the Far West Region’s No. 9 team in overtime, the MSU Billings women’s soccer team was blown out 4-0 at Sonoma State on Friday.  The Yellowjackets fell to 3-5-1 with the loss while the Seawolves improved to 4-4-1. 

Sonoma State scored two goals in each half, with four different players finding the net.  Crystal Howard assisted in three of the four goals, and the Seawolves out-shot the Jackets 19-5 in the game.

Mandy Reed (Sr., Denver, CO) and Ally Taylor (Fr., Ojai, CA) each had two shots in the game, and Raquel Macias (Fr., Cheyenne, WY) got off one shot.  All five shots came in the second half and were saved by SSU goalkeeper Teresa Green.

Alyssa Wolfer (Fr., Longmont, CO) was in goal for the Yellowjackets for all 90 minutes, allowing four goals and making nine saves. 

“We were pretty much outplayed,” said Yellowjacket coach Don Trentham.  “We didn’t come out and perform like we are capable.  Pretty much the entire team had an off day and we didn’t play well as a team.  That happens and we’ll have to deal with it.  We just didn’t look good today, but we have a big game against San Francisco State on Sunday, so we’ll see how we rebound.”

MSU Billings will face San Francisco State Sunday afternoon at 1:00 p.m. PDT.  The Gators are ranked No. 4 in the Far West Region and are 7-3 overall after defeating Western Oregon 1-0 on Friday.
