9/30/2023 9:29:00 PM | Men's Soccer
NORTHRIDGE, Calif.—A 76th-minute Cal State Bakersfield penalty kick proved the difference as the Roadrunners defeated CSUN 1-0 in Big West men's soccer action Saturday night at Matador Soccer Field.
ACCORDING TO HEAD COACH TERRY DAVILA
After a CSUB corner kick, a Roadrunner offensive player was taken down in the box, leading to Connor Mautino's successful penalty kick attempt. The Matadors threatened with 1:10 to go. CSUN attacked the Roadrunner goal, which resulted in Levin Gerhardt taking a shot in front of the CSUB goal. His attempt went just high as the Roadrunners held onto the victory.
