SACRAMENTO, Calif.—CSUN Women’s Soccer fell by a 1-0 score to Sacramento State on Saturday afternoon at Hornet Field. Senior goalkeeper Hayden Mauldin<\/a> finished with four saves, but the Hornets came away with the game’s only goal in the 43rd minute.\u00a0<\/p>\n

HOW IT HAPPENED

\nMauldin would make two of her four saves in the first five minutes of action as the score remained scoreless for much of the first half. CSUN would hold an 8-5 in shots in the half but could not break through against the Hornet defense. Delaney Timmons picked up all four of her saves on the day in the opening stanza with Yasmin Azar<\/a> totaling two of those shot attempts. Sacramento State finally broke pass the Matador defense in the 43rd minute with Lexi Schroeder finding Jaety Mandaquit\u00a0for a header that struck the netting.\u00a0<\/p>\n

CSUN would search for the equalizer for the entire second half, but the Hornet defense held firm. The Matadors recorded four shots in the period with Sacramento State’s defense producing three blocks. Despite three corner kicks for CSUN, neither led to shot attempts. Jana Akins<\/a> took the Matadors’ last strike of the contest in the 69th minute with the Hornet defense blocking the shot.\u00a0<\/p>\n
