LOS ANGELES, Calif. - An awkward 27th-minute goal from the home side snaps the No.3 Wildcats unbeaten streak Friday night.

Junior defender Preston Moll led the 'Cats' offensive efforts with three shots, two threatening the Golden Eagles keeper. Miles Rice, Bryan Manriquez, and Justin Ricketts all tallying shots of their own.

The Golden Eagles were relentless on offense, keeping Emanuel Padilla on his toes, making two saves on eleven shots faced.

With Friday's dropped match, the Wildcats sit fourth in the conference standings, still chasing a post-season tournament appearance. With four games remaining in the conference schedule, the 'Cats will need to capitalize on the remaining opportunities to snatch up points—three of the four games being at home on Chico soil.

Their record currently sits at 10-1-3 overall and 3-1-3 in the conference, giving them a strong standing in the regional rankings as they transition into post-season conversations.

Chico State will stay in the Los Angeles area for their Sunday match against Cal State Dominguez Hills, concluding the away portion of their schedule.
