TURLOCK, Calif. – Junior #Alyssa Matheson#'s two goals not enough to propel the Cal State Monterey Bay women's soccer team over Cal State Stanislaus this afternoon. The Otters fell 3-2 in California Collegiate Athletic Association play at the Turlock Regional Sports Complex.

With the loss, the Otters drop to 1-15-1 (0-11 CCAA) as the Warriors improve to 7-5-4 (3-5-3 CCAA).

After the Warriors took a 3-0 lead into halftime, the Otters rallied back when Matheson scored in the 77th minute on a penalty kick.  Matheson scored again in the final minute of the game but time was not on the Otters side.

Warriors senior Adrienne Sorenson scored the first goal of the match in the 18th minute of play as she took a pass from freshman Marissa Dunaway and struck it into the upper left corner of the net.  Junior Bri McClain and freshman Kayln Pottorf each added a goal before the half ended.

CSUMB outshot the Warriors 14-12 with the Otters accumulating a season-high eight shots on goal.

The Otters see their season come to an end this weekend as they host Sonoma State on Friday, Oct. 24 at 12:30 p.m. and Humboldt State University on Sunday at 11:30 a.m.  Both games are at the Otter Soccer Complex.
