Box Score HAYWARD, Calif. –
Sara Silva,
Bekah Anderson, and
Megan Ravenscroft each scored during Sunday's 3-0 win over San Francisco State. Pioneers goalkeeper
Donna Williams made eight saves to earn her second shutout on the year.
"It was nice to see us finish our opportunities on goal," said the winning head coach
Amy Gerace. "Defensively we were sound and did well to preserve the shutout. It was another good all around team effort."
Cal State East Bay enjoyed holding its first lead of the season after Silva scored in the 25th minute. She was on the receiving end of a long free kick from
Sara Yamasaki to the far post about 10 yards out.
Less than five minutes later the Pioneers again scored in similar fashion.
Ariana Gordon served in a long pass to Anderson who placed it past Gators goalkeeper Allison Land.
Land entered the weekend ranked second in the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) in saves. CSUEB's
Donna Williams ranked third entering the weekend and now has 41 on the season.
Early in the second half East Bay's
Megan Ravenscroft scored her first goal of the season. She settled a loose ball and placed her shot through the Gators defense. All three CSUEB scorers contributed their first goals of the year.
Cal State East Bay (2-6-0, 2-4-0 CCAA) will host Cal Poly Pomona (4-2-1, 2-2-1 CCAA) on Friday, Oct. 4, at 7 p.m.
