One thing that stuck out in Thursday night's prep football results was the collective performance by the Pacific View League, which went 3-1 against the Marmonte League.

The only PVL loss was Rio Mesa's loss at Newbury Park and there were times in the first half in which the Spartans looked like eventual league champions.

On the other hand, the Marmonte League was a disappointing 2-5 Thursday night, including Thousand Oaks' loss at Buena in one of the night's key interconference showdowns.

The Channel Islands and Pacifica High boys' soccer teams improved to 5-1 in Pacific View League play Tuesday afternoon.

Luis Hernandez scored twice, David Torres had a goal and an assist and Miguel Tellez had two assists as the Channel Islands (12-2-3) scored three second-half goals to avenge its only PVL loss of the season, 3-0, over visiting Rio Mesa (8-5-3, 2-4) Tuesday afternoon.

Rogelio Salinas and Raul Yepez scored first-half goals as Pacifica (15-4-1) eased by host Camarillo, 2-0.

Moises Orozco scored twice and Andres Negrette added another as Oxnard (6-3, 4-2) stayed a game back by scoring three times in the final 15 minutes with a 3-2 win over Hueneme, which led 2-0 midway through the second half.

Macey Herrera set up Nika Nelero's goal and Megan Erskine set up Riley Ridgik's goal as the Buena High girls' soccer team (14-7-1) improved to 5-0 in Channel League play with a 2-0 win over host San Marcos Tuesday.

Adrinna Nunez scored four times and Diana Leon scored twice as the Santa Paula High girls' soccer team (10-1-1) improved to 4-0 in the Frontier League with a 8-0 win over host Santa Clara Tuesday.

But the Pacifica High girls' soccer team (13-3-3, 5-0-1) did not stay perfect in the Pacific View League. Amber Pimley opened the scoring for Camarillo (6-7-2, 4-1-1) in the 24th minute off Briana Leriviere's throw-in as the Camarillo High girls' soccer team handed Pacifica its first league draw.

Sabrina Munoz's free kick in the 60th minute kept the Tritons unbeaten in league play.

Ashley White scored four goals as the Rio Mesa High women's water polo team (20-5) improved to 6-0 in the Pacific View League with a 14-0 win over Camarillo.

Searra Silverberg scored six goals while teammates Sophie Balate, Gianna Date and Miranda Bard scored three each as the Malibu High girls water polo team improve to 5-0 in the Tri-Valley League with a 18-1 win over Nordhoff (4-11, 2-4).

Entering its Jan. 21 game against Channel Islands, the Oxnard boys' basketball team has won 18 consecutive Pacific View League games and 36 of its last 37. 

Omar Espinoza poked home a loose ball off a corner kick in the final minute as the Pacifica High boys soccer team improved to 2-0 in Pacific View League play with a 3-2 win over visiting Rio Mesa Tuesday afternoon.

A pair of Jerry Ponce 12th and 13th goals of the season had pushed the Spartans (7-2-3) within moments of surviving an opening gaunlet of Channel Islands (8-2-3) and Pacifica (12-3-1) undefeated.

Elsewhere in the PVL, Jose Nuno scored in the 67 th minute to push Channel Islands past Hueneme, 1-0, and goals by Ignacio Coronel and Moises Orozco led Oxnard over Camarillo 2-0.

Updated Pacific View League boys' soccer standings: 

• Team PVL Overall 
• Pacifica 2-0 12-3-1  
• Oxnard 2-0 4-4-3
• Rio Mesa 1-1 7-2-3  
• Channel Islands 1-1 8-2-3
