Las Positas remains undefeated at 7-0, beat Los Medanos 2-0

By Matt Schwab

The Las Positas women's team (7-0-0), ranked No. 18 in the latest United Soccer Coaches national poll and No. 2 in the state poll, defeated a formidable Los Medanos College 2-0 on Tuesday, Sept. 21. 

Impressive freshmen Caitlyn Garrison (Livermore) and McKenna Masinter (Dublin) each had a goal and an assist in the first half. Freshman Tiffani Cheng (Castro Valley) also had an assist.

"Caitlyn had a great goal and McKenna had a major impact on both sides of the ball," said Cumbo, who also coaches the women's team. "Our backline and midfielders did a great job absorbing the attack of a very good LMC team, and our attacking players did well in front of the goal."

Cumbo described the match as "not easy … The team showed grit and toughness."

Las Positas will open conference play on Tuesday, Sept. 28 at Canada College-Redwood City.
