<\/p>\n LA JOLLA, Calif. \u2013\u00a0The Pacific men’s soccer program fought to the last moments of a feisty finish, ultimately coming up short in a 1-0 decision at UC San Diego on Saturday from Triton Soccer Stadium.<\/p>\n The Tigers (1-3-1) held their ground, staving off most of the Tritons’ (4-0) offensive presence across the night, but could not find an equalizer late despite extended pressure.<\/p>\n Sophomore Josephat Yangyuoru<\/a> had the most opportunities in the evening for the Tigers, recording two shot attempts and one on target. Redshirt sophomore Muharif Abdul-Kadir<\/a> and senior Montgomery Carey<\/a> also registered shot attempts during the second-half push.<\/p>\n Graduate student Mateus Ruiz-Hurst<\/a> drew the starting assignment in goal for the second consecutive match, notching a career-high ten saves across the 90-minute effort. Six of those ten stops came in a busy first half. The ten-save mark ties the season-high by a Pacific keeper when sophomore Alejandro Caracheo Luna<\/a> tallied that many in the 3-2 win at Utah Tech.<\/p>\n The Tritons pressed early, striking for the only goal of the match in the 23rd minute for a 1-0 lead via Gavin Allegaert. UCSD out-chanced Pacific 21-4 in the shots department and 13-2 in the corner kicks statistic.<\/p>\n Despite trailing by a goal for most of the match, the Tigers continued to apply pressure late in the contest, but a pair of last-minute free kicks were denied by the Tritons’ defense.<\/p>\n Pacific will look to regroup and return to Northern California for a road match at San Jose State on Thursday at 7 p.m. from Spartan Soccer Complex.
