No. 17 CSUDH Cruises to 4–1 Women's Soccer Win Over CSUB
October 24, 2001

Bakersfield, Calif. — The 17th–ranked Cal State Dominguez women’s soccer team scored early and often in its 4–1 win over Cal State Bakersfield on the Main Soccer Field of CSUB.

The Toros drew first blood in the ninth minute when Alba Garcia scored her first collegiate goal on the assist from Tanya Wilson. Garcia lofted a soft shot over CSUB defenders after goalkeeper Mandy Cutshall misplayed an earlier shot.

Michelle Quigley headed a ball that rebounded off CSDH keeper Heather Williams to Rebekah Rogers. Rogers put the ball in the back of the net to tie the score 1–1.

Eight minutes later Sanoe Samatua gave the Toros the lead for good on a strong shot to the upper far post. Lecia Davis added the final goal of the first half on a half volley into an open goal on the assist from Dianne Garza and Shannon Donnelly.

Garza got her second assist of the night on the only goal scored in the second half. Wilson headed the ball past Cutshall from the Garza cross.

The last time the ’Runners lost by a margin of three goals or more at home was in 1998. Ironically, that loss came at the hands of the Toros in a 4–1 victory.

CSDH improves to 14–3–1 overall and 9–3–1 in the CCAA. CSUB falls to 5–11–2 overall and 3–8–2 in CCAA play.

The Toros will play their final regular season game Saturday, October 27 at home against Cal State L.A.
