Women’s Soccer: Santa Ana Overcomes 3-0 Deficit; Zuniga Gives Lady Dons Tie With Goal In Final Minutes
SANTA ANA (CA) – Freshman midfield Maria Zuniga’s (Century HS) goal from 30 yards out in the 87th minute helped the Santa Ana College (SAC) women’s soccer team earn a 3-3 tie in its home season-opener against visiting Chaffey College. The Lady Dons (1-0-1) overcame a 3-0 halftime deficit with three unanswered goals in the final period.
Chaffey (0-1-1) built its 3-0 lead behind Martha Alfaro’s hat trick. Alfaro gave the Panthers their early lead with her first goal at the 12-minute mark of the first half. She took a pass from Brittany Fisher and knocked it in from eight-yards out. Alfaro made it 2-0 with her second goal at the 28th minute and gave Chaffey a 3-0 advantage with her third goal just before halftime (44th minute).
In the second half it was all Santa Ana as the Lady Dons out shot the Panthers, 14-2, in the period. Rebeka Roth (Estancia HS) cut the Chaffey lead to 3-1 with a goal at the 58th minute while Lupe Ramirez drew the Lady Dons to within one, 3-2, with a goal seven minutes later (65th).
Zuniga tied the game at 3-3 with her shot from 30-yards out that went off the finger tips of Panthers’ goalkeeper Cara LaShock with three minutes left. The Lady Dons took advantage of their one person advantage for the final 15 minutes as Chaffey’s Cassie Deal picked up her second yellow card and was disqualified at the 75th minute mark.
Next: SAC will travel to Rio Hondo College on Tuesday, September 7 to take on the Roadrunners in a non-conference match. Game time is set for 3 p.m.
