Tiger blank Leopards in homecoming

Box Score

LOS ANGELES, Calif. (Oct. 13, 2010) – The women's soccer team returned to the Lower Soccer Field on the campus of Occidental College for the first time in more than a month and kept their streak alive, scoring a trio of goals while holding the University of La Verne scoreless in Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference action today. The win gives the Tigers their eighth victory of the season and their sixth in SCIAC play as they stretch their unbeaten streak to nine games.

Oxy midfielder Liz Martin was quick to find the back of the net, as she scored on a solo breakaway, nearly ten minutes into the match. Martin along with Alex Nicholson and Elissa Minamishin led the Tigers with a combined 12 of the 16 total shots taken by the Black and Orange in the contest.

Minamishin began the second half by scoring on a header during the 50th minute, off of an assist by Martin. She then broke two defenders with less than 20 minutes remaining in the half to score the third and final goal of the game for the Tigers.

Defending the back field today, captains Maddy Rasch and Season Falkler-Rodriguez joined forces with Bree Geary, Andrea Loh and goalie Robin Feldman to keep the Leos off the board.

Feldman recorded her fifth shutout of the fall.

La Verne (1-8-1, 0-6-1 SCIAC) was led by Marisella Macias and Brianna Romero, who combined for 8 of the 12 Leopards' shots.

The Tiger (8-1-2, 6-0-1) will return to the Lower Soccer Field on Saturday Oct. 16 for a conference match-up against the Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Athenas, which is set to begin at 1:00 p.m.   .
