BOX SCORE SEASIDE, Calif. – The Cal State Monterey Bay women's soccer team held its own against Cal State East Bay throughout a tough fought match, but was unable to notch the victory as the Pioneers scored a late goal to earn a 1-0 win on Sunday afternoon.
 
The Otters drop to 5-4 overall and 3-4 in conference action, while the Pioneers improved to 4-4-1 (2-4-1 CCAA).
 
CSUMB's best chance came in the 15th minute. After being awarded an indirect kick after the Pioneer keeper was called for a handball outside the penalty box, senior Korie Soares crushed a shot, which was blocked by the Pioneer wall.
 
The Pioneers clinched the win in the 82nd minute when Shianna Falk took a lead pass from Kara Yamamoto and tapped it past CSUMB's keeper Diana Zambrano (La Puente, Calif./Mt. SAC).
