Oxnard College men's soccer head coach Ross Greaney on the Condors 1-0 Southern California regional quarterfinal loss to visiting rival Moorpark Saturday afternoon:

"They (Moorpark) played great defensively. We found it tough to break them down."

(on the decisive own goal)

"It was a stumble. Kind of a bit of a mess, and they were able to make it stand up."

The Moorpark College soccer teams owned Saturday afternoon's Southern California quarterfinals.

The visiting Moorpark men edged cross-county rival Oxnard, 1-0, on a 20th minute Oxnard own goal, when an attacking move by Moorpark strikers Gerardo Espinoza and Kevin Sanchez was deflected into the Condors net by an Oxnard defender.

The host Moorpark women got past No. 13 San Diego Miramar, 1-0. Natalee Flugum headed home Sinead Vaughan's near-post corner kick in the final minute of the first half.

Both teams advance to Tuesday's Southern California semifinals. The No. 10 Moorpark men will visit Mount San Antonio College, the 2007 state champion and 2008 state finalist. The No. 4 Moorpark women will host Orange County opposition, either No. 5 Cypress, a state powerhouse, or No. 12 Orange Coast.

"Like all Oxnard teams, we usually have the ball," said Oxnard coach Ross Greaney. "We have a lot of possession and we play pretty well on the ball."

The host Moorpark College men's soccer team defeated first-place Santa Barbara City, 1-0, this afternoon to pull the Western State Conference race tighter.

The loss was the first by the Vaqueros (8-5-4, 8-1-3) in WSC play. Moorpark (9-6-2, 7-4-1) pulled within five points of Santa Barbara in the standings, 27 to 22.

The Oxnard College men's soccer team (10-5-4, 6-3-3) is a point back with 21 after defeating visiting Glendale, 1-0, Friday on Sam Nellis' goal set up by Johnny Martinez.

Freshman midfielder Jose Arrevalo scored with two minutes to play as the Oxnard College men's soccer team forced a 1-1 tie at county-rival Moorpark Tuesday afternoon.

Midfielder Joel Chaves won the ball in the 88th minute and found Arrevalo, who beat a pair of Raiders as he cut inside and finished his first goal of the season. Moorpark had taken the lead in the 80th minute on a full-field move.

"It was great that they battled at 1 o'clock in the heat," said Oxnard coach Ross Greaney of his team, which has been inundated with flu-like symptoms this week. "I was subsituting like a hockey coach."

With a win, Oxnard (9-5-4, 5-3-3) or Moorpark (8-6-2, 6-4-1) could have moved within striking distance of first-place Santa Barbara City in the Western State Conference. Instead, the Ventura County derby finished in a draw for the eighth time in 12 meetings.

Ventura County derby looms Friday

Share: Share on Facebook submit to reddit StumbleUpon Toolbar
 

There is no room for error when the Moorpark College and Oxnard College men's soccer teams meet.

The Ventura County derby, which resumes Friday afternoon at Oxnard College, has ended in a draw seven times in 10 meetings since 2004, including the last four meetings.

"It's a valuable game for both of us," said Moorpark coach Sean Roche. "We know it will be tough. We have to be on our game to get a win."

Moorpark (5-2-1) has opened up 3-0 in Western State Conference play following Tuesday's 3-2 win over visiting Hancock.

Featuring Gerardo Espinosa up front, Augie Cazarez on the left and Adrian Llamas in midfield, the Raiders have outscored conference opponents, 8-3.

"We have the most gifted attacking group that we've had in a number of years," said Roche. "That is what this team is about."

Oxnard (5-4-1, 1-2) has hit the skids since opening WSC play Sept. 29 with a late 1-0 win over Citrus that gave the Condors a five-game winning streak in which they outscored opponents 19-4.

Back-to-back losses to the two second-place teams, Santa Barbara City and Los Angeles Mission, has Oxnard needing a win to stay within touching distance of the leaders.

"Moorpark's always important, but now it's doubly so," said Oxnard coach Ross Greaney. "They're off to a good start."

Behind midfielders Max Madrigal, Abel Pacheco, Sam Nellis, Alberto Angiano and forwards Nate Lydle and Emilio Ramirez, the Condors have been a force in possession.

But after scoring in the first nine games of the season, the goals have dried up as Oxnard has been shut out in each of its past two games.

"We've had a lot of possession and a lot of great play, but just not the final pass or the final shot," said Greaney. "I'm happy with the way we're playing for most of the areas of the field, just not in front of the goal.

"If we start scoring, everything is going to fall into place."

Both teams are struggling with injuries at the back. Oxnard defensive midfielder Jonny Martinez has moved to center back because of injuries to Richie Vargas and Andres Herrera.

Neither team has been able to get three points from the derby since Moorpark's 2-0 win on Oct. 24, 2006 on goals by Luis Carmona and Rei Stern. Oxnard's last beat Moorpark, 1-0, on Oct. 25, 2005.

After a stutter-step start, the Oxnard College men's soccer team is
finding its feet. And the net.

in Oxnard's 4-2 win at Chaffey in Rancho Cucamonga.

healthy, and now we're starting to come together."
