LA JOLLA, Calif. — UC San Diego looked every bit the the nation's No. 2 ranked team Friday night as the defending CCAA champion scored three goals in the first half and looked back only briefly in a 6–1 CCAA–opening win over Cal State Monterey Bay at the Triton Soccer Stadium.

CSUMB pulled one goal back early in the second half on a brilliant free kick by Sahana Bojorquez (Las Vegas, Nev./Spring Valley HS). But UCSD responded with a free kick goal of its own less than a minute later to regain control.

THE MATCH WAS OVER WHEN… Megumi Barber followed a Sahana Bojorquez free kick goal in the 48th minute with one of her own 48 seconds later to put UCSD on top 4–1.

SIX OF A KIND… The Otters allowed six goals in a match for the first time since an 8–0 loss to Chico State on Sept. 7, 2007. That's a span of 202 matches.

LEADERS OF THE RAFT… GOALS: Sahana Bojorquez 1; ASSISTS: None; POINTS: Sahana Bojorquez 2; SHOTS: Melissa Wilson 3; SAVES: Stephanie Busch 4.

THEY'VE GOT NEXT… The Otters conclude their San Diego excursion with a match at Cal State San Marcos Sunday (Sept. 16). Kickoff is scheduled for 11:30 a.m.
