Cal women's soccer

Angelina Anderson was drafted by Angel City FC and Sydney Collins was picked eight overall by NC Courage.

The Cal women’s soccer team brought a lingering end to a successful conference season after a contentiously fought battle against the Bay Area rival Stanford last Friday, Nov. 4th.

The closure of the Cal women’s soccer conference season towers over the suddenly stagnant Bears, with a visit from Stanford only a couple days away.

The Bears reach a season high of 4-0 against the Buffs but remain scoreless against the Utes.

The Bears take on Colorado and Utah before facing rival school Stanford for their final game.

However, these losses don’t keep them down on the ground too long; even if it looks like a lost cause. The Bears are back up and at ‘em in last week’s games against Oregon State (OSU) and University of Oregon (Oregon), winning against OSU, and tying with Oregon.

Despite outshooting the Trojans 15-12, the Bears ultimately fell 0-2 after accumulating a three-game winning streak.

This Friday, Oct. 12, the Bears will be hosting the Trojans at the homely Edwards Stadium, marking their 6th Pac-12 game and the halfway point of the conference half of the season.

Cal lands a clean sweep against both Washington opponents 2-1. Keely Roy ascends to fifth in the Pac-12 in goals scored while Ayo Oke climbs up to the conference’s top five after obtaining her fifth assist.

The Bears will face off against the Washington Huskies and Washington States’ Cougars on Cal’s home turf against two competitors who have proven to be tough to beat these past seasons.
