This dramatic finish sealed the loss for the Trojans, by a final of 1-2. “This was definitely a game that we should have won, it really hurts to lose this way,”first year Deanna Prince said following the disappointing loss. This was Skyline’s second straight loss. The team was shut out 0-2 against Canada College on Oct.17.”We are capable of winning all of our games, sometimes things just don’t go our way,” Goal Keeper Rocio Samayoa said.

Head Coach Kevin Corsiglia insists that his team must work harder if they want to succeed in the playoffs.”Lately we have had problems finishing off games,that is a concern,” Coach Corsiglia said. In the history of Skyline Women’s soccer, No team has ever finished with a .500 winning percentage or higher, but this team is on pace to do that.”Were playing well but we have lost some very close contests. We have to play a full 90 minute game every time we come out. If we do that, I think this team will be fine,” Corsiglia said.Skyline will look to improve it’s winning record on Oct.24 when they take the field to play a home game against Hartnell College. That game will begin at 2pm.
