CARSON -- Kristan Boyle headed in a corner kick from Jessica Murphy with two seconds remaining in regulation Friday night to lift Cal State Dominguez Hills to a 1-0 CCAA conference women's soccer victory over West Region No. 5 Cal State San Bernardino.
The score culminated a furious offensive attack by the Toros who had four shots on goal in the final five minutes but three were turned away by Coyotes goalkeeper
Laura Lyons who finished the match with six saves in a heroic effort.
The loss dropped the Coyotes record to 5-2-2 overall and 3-1-1 in the CCAA after entering the weekend alone in first place in the CCAA South Division. The Toros are now 3-2 in CCAA play and 5-5 overall.
The Toros defense stifled the Coyote offense as goalkeeper Alyssa Congdon turned away four shots on goal. CSUDH outshot San Bernardino 11-9 and had seven corner kicks to none for the Coyotes.
Lyons stopped a shot by Danielle Shoemake at the 85:56 mark, then stopped a shot by Murphy at 86:43 and another try Murphy at 89:42, setting up the decisive corner kick that resulted in the match-winner by Boyle.
The Coyotes will head for UC San Diego on Sunday to play the Tritons, ranked No. 4 in the West Region.
