11.18.08 - TEAM EARNS TOP SPOT; HOSTS SAN BERNARDINO ON SATURDAY

    The defending state champion Cerritos College women's soccer team earned the top seed for the upcoming Southern California Regional Playoffs and will open the post season hosting #16-seeded San Bernardino Valley (15-6-3) at 2:00 p.m. this Saturday. The Falcons (17-0-4), the nation's top-ranked team and three-time South Coast Conference champions, posted a 3-2 win over the Wolverines back on October 30. San Bernardino Valley won the championship of the Foothill Conference.
 
    In that game, the Falcons took a 2-0 in the first half on two late goals. In the 40th minute, freshman Salina Flores (Los Alamitos HS) scored on a nice free kick from 30 yards out, as she bent the ball around the defense and past San Bernardino Valley goalkeeper Maria Magana. Just two minutes later, sophomore forward Monique Cisneros (Mayfair HS) registered a goal after receiving a long pass from freshman forward Liliana Leos (Southeast HS). Cisneros was able to run under the pass and followed with a hard shot into the goal. However, in this game, the team will be without the services of Leos, who is out with an injury.
 
    The Wolverines cut the Cerritos lead to 2-1 when the Falcons attempted to clear the ball and it deflected off Julie Diaz, who was credited with the goal after it went over the head of freshman goalkeeper Tiffany Hollis (Lakewood HS). Sophomore goalkeeper Chantal Cervero (Cerritos HS) played the first half for the Falcons and made three saves.
 
    Cerritos regained their two-goal advantage in the 78th minute, as Flores showed again how deadly she can be with a free kick. This time, she was 35 yards out and drilled a powerful shot into the net for her second of the game and fourth of the season. The Wolverines made it interesting when Marisa Zamorez lined a shot over the head of Hollis in the 85th minute. Hollis posted four saves in the second half. San Bernardino Valley is the only team this season to score two goals on the Falcons.
 
    With a win, the Falcons will host the winner of the #8-seeded Moorpark College (12-4-4) versus #9-seeded Los Angeles Pierce College (18-3-3) game. The second round game will be on Tuesday, November 25.
