Bruins Beat Trojans, Toros Triumph & More
A 13th minute goal proved lucky for UCLA (21-0-2) Saturday, giving them a 1-0 win over USC (16-5-2) and a sixth straight NCAA Quarterfinal appearance.
The Cal State Dominguez Hills men defeated Midwestern State 2-1 and earned a place in the NCAA Division II Final Four for the first time in seven years. Jordan Rover (Los Alamitos High) and Scott Mariano (Artesia) scored for CSUDH.
CSUDH will play Dec. 5 against the winner of Sunday's Tusculum-Tampa match-up.
Earlier today, the U.S. Under-20 Women's National Team beat Argentina 3-0 and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Under-20 Women's World Cup in Chile. UCLA's Sydney Leroux got her second assist in two games.
