Men’s Soccer: Vikings edge Orange Coast 1-0 on the road for first win of 2014

Sophomore Kifi Cabrera (Poly HS) posted five saves in goal while an own-goal by Orange Coast College provided all the scoring in a 1-0 Long Beach City College win in Costa Mesa on Tuesday night.

It was the Vikings' first win after opening the 2014 season with draws at Cuyamaca College (1-1) and San Diego City College (0-0).

Orange Coast (1-1-1) outshot Long Beach by a 14-11 margin, including 11 in the second half. The own-goal by a Pirates' defender in the 49th minute proved to be the game-winner for LBCC.

Long Beach (1-0-2) returns to action on Friday when it hosts Rio Hondo College in a 4 p.m. non-conference game.
