CSUB and UCSD Draw 1-1



SAN DIEGO, Calif. – CSU Bakersfield women's soccer did what needed to be done to prevent a loss at UC San Diego on Thursday. Sophomore midfielder Chelsee Duran headed the opening goal and a tremendous defensive effort following an UCSD equalizer secured the 1-1 draw. 
 
"It was a gritty performance from our team," said CSUB women's soccer Head Coach Sebastian Vecchio. "We competed for 110 minutes, and we created enough to win the game."
 
In the 18th minute, Duran netted her first goal of the season on a rebounded free kick from sophomore forward Leli Halldorsdottir that ricocheted off the top post. Duran became the first Roadrunner to score in a Big West league match.
 
UCSD's Ava D'Arcangelo capitalized on a brief defensive lapse in the 33rd minute, equalizing the contest on a free kick that curved in goal. 
 
Fifty-seven minutes ticked by without an answer from either team to force overtime, the Roadrunners second time going extra periods this season. Bakersfield kept the Tritons off the goal line for another 20 minutes to earn the tie and conference point.
 
"It is a performance to be proud of," added Vecchio, "but we need to continue to grow and get better on the ball going forward."
 
Freshman goalkeeper Flavia Burrell tallied her second draw in goal grabbing a nine saves in the process.
 
CSUB (1-8-2, 0-1-1) enjoys a scheduled bye on Sunday and returns home to prepare for its next conference stops at Cal Poly (10/7) and UC Santa Barbara (10/10).
