#10 Tritons too much for Sea Lions on opening day

LA JOLLA, Calif. - The Point Loma women's soccer team fell to the No. 10 team in the country and crosstown rivals, UC San Diego, on the road in its season opener, 3-0. (Aug. 31)
 
The Tritons used a quality offensive attack and a stout defense to hand the Sea Lions most lopsided loss since 2013. The first score surprised PLNU as it came off an own goal in the second minute of the match. UCSD would extend its lead with a goal right before halftime and seal the match with a Katie O'Laughlin goal in the 77th minute.

Hall's thoughts
"UCSD is a very good team and they played better than us tonight. They have some players that are very special, especially their forwards. Those two forwards are on another level. I think they are the best pair of forwards in Division II. They were better than us tonight."
 
"This was a really good test for us, especially our freshmen. The biggest thing for us is being poised. I think we are good enough to play against really good teams but we need to be poised when the game starts."
 
"I felt good about today. I thought we saw some good things from many of our women and we had some good moments. I am not walking off this field disappointed. I am proud of these women. We just ran into a really good team that in my opinion is one of the top 1-2 teams in the country."
