Golden Eagles Record Their Third Straight Tie

IRVINE -- Cal State LA's men's soccer team finished a grueling eight-day stretch with a hard-fought 0-0 tie at Concordia on Thursday.

The Golden Eagles, playing their fourth game in eight days, settled for their third tie during that span and their second straight scoreless draw. Cal State LA (1-0-3), ranked No. 22 in the nation, beat Saint Martin's, 6-2, in the season opener and then had ties with Point Loma (1-1), Cal Poly Pomona (0-0) and Concordia.

The Golden Eagles had a pair of outstanding chances to get the win in the overtime periods. Early in the first extra session, Jonathan Hinojosa drilled a shot that seemed destined for the right corner of the net, but Concordia goalkeeper Jordan Brinkley made a diving save to keep it out. Early in the second overtime, Shahin Hemat made a strong run into the box and his hard shot went wide.

Cal State LA had a 15-8 advantage in shots and seemed to lift its game after halftime. After the two teams each had five shots in the first half, Cal State LA enjoyed a 10-3 edge in the second half and two 10-minute overtime periods.

Cal State LA also had a 7-3 advantage in corner kicks.

Tim Klefisch had three shots to lead the Golden Eagles, while Eddie Leon, Steven Eberle, Femi Kaffo and Hinojosa had two each.

Steven Barrera, making his first start in goal of the season, made five saves for Cal State LA, while Brinkley made eight saves for Concordia (1-0-1).

Cal State LA will return to action on Friday, Sept. 16, in its California Collegiate Athletic Association opener against Cal State East Bay at home beginning at 4:30 p.m.
