10/21/2011 5:39:00 PM | Women's Soccer
Long Beach, CA - The UC Riverside women's soccer team looked to move up in the league standings with a win on Friday at Long Beach State, but it was the 49ers who scored a second-half goal to escape with a 1-0 victory.
The team's combined for just seven shots in the first period as the game went into halftime tied at zero.
The 49ers (11-5-1, 4-2-0) outshot the Highlanders (7-8-1, 2-3-0) 10-4 in the second half, and in the 74th minute of play Nicole Sweetman corralled a rebounded ball and sent in into the back of the net for the score.
The 1-0 lead would hold up the rest of the half as the Highlanders failed to record a shot on goal the remainder of the game.
Next up for UC Riverside is a home match against Cal State Fullerton on Sunday, October 23 at 6:00 pm at the UCR Soccer Stadium.
