EUGENE, Ore. - The Portland CC women's soccer team posted their 8th shutout of 2022 with a 4-0 win at Lane today in a make up of a postponed match from last Saturday.
Goalkeeper Sophia Barr and the Panther defense held the host Titans to just one shot for the game, and have given up just two goals on the season in NWAC Southern Region Play.
Despite launching 12 shots at the Lane goal in the first half, the score at the break was 0-0 thanks to 11 saves from Lane goalkeeper Kaylin Dea.
The second half was a different story, as PCC put four into the net. Lisa Albarran scored her 10th goal of the season in the 62nd minute, with the assist going to Ava Martins.
Paige Nguyen added an unassisted goal in the 67th minute, followed almost immediately by a goal from Mya Smith.Â
Smith then got her brace by tacking on the final goal of the game in the 87th minute.
The result keeps Portland perched atop the region standings at 7-1, and a playoff berth is already secured. Now the Panthers look to claim a region championship with two huge contests on the horizon. Chemeketa and Southwestern Oregon visit PCC next week, and both are tied for second place in the region at 6-1-1. Two wins by PCC will give the Panthers their first ever region crown.
