FULLERTON, Calif. - Cal State Fullerton women's soccer lost 3-0 to No. 5 UCLA on Sunday evening in Titan Stadium. The two teams played in front of 7,832 fans, smashing the previous program record for single-game attendance of 1,617 on Oct. 9, 2015. Excluding NCAA Tournament games, it is the seventh-highest single-game attendance in NCAA Women's Soccer history.
The Bruins of UCLA jumped out to a quick 1-0 lead in the 10th minute thanks to Maricarmen Reyes' left-footed strike. The Titans then battled and hung in there, keeping the score at 1-0 until the 77th minute when UCLA got its second goal (Quincy McMahon) and then the third in the 79th (Mia Fishel) to secure the win.
