team an 8-7 South Coast Conference win at Chaffey
College on Wednesday. The win improved the Falcons
record to 3-2 overall, while they are 1-0 in the SCC.

Panthers time after time over the course of the match.
The two combined for 15 saves, with several of them at
crucial times in the game.

win, while freshman

Villalobos (Whittier HS) added two goals
on the day. Sophomore
