LOS ANGELES, Calif. – Men's soccer dropped its SCIAC semifinal match to No. 2 seeded Claremont-M-S on Thursday, November 7, 2-1.
 
The Tigers scored a late goal with 15 minutes to go in regulation and fired off 12 shots to the Stags' 11, but it was too little too late as the 2-0 deficit in the second half was too much to overcome.
 
The game opened with both teams firing, similar to the 3-3 tie they played to on Patterson field on October 23. Each keeper had a save within the first six minutes of the contest, while the Tigers put two early shots on goal.
 
As the half wore on the two teams got into it with 10 fouls and two cards in the half.
 
Coming out of the half was more of the same until the 63^rd minute the Stags broke through, then added one more for insurance in the 67^th.
 
The Tigers would not quit, however, as Andrew Notter placed two shots on goal in the next seven minutes. One found the back of the net to make it a one goal game in the 76th minute.
 
Oxy failed to get anything going in the final 14 as the Stags stifled the Tigers' goal scoring opportunities. Notter's goal at 75:58 was the final shot of the game on either side.
 
With the loss, the Tigers are eliminated from the SCIAC tournament and will likely end the season 9-3-6 overall. They have an outside shot at an at-large bid, but are ranked in the final slot, seventh, in NCAA Division III Region X.
