All season long the Fresno State Soccer Team has been like a time bomb lust waiting to explode Unfortunately lor the Galloping Gaels of St Mary s, the explosion occured last Sunday in Ratcliffe Stadium as the Bulldogs romped to a 9-0 triumph In collecting their first league win, the Bulldogs not only satisfied the 300 tans who turned out but CSUF Coach Bob Bereskin was also quite pleased with his teams' performance 'We had to win this one to prove that we belong in this league' Bereskin said After several frustrating near misses against highly regarded competition in recent matches, the Bulldogs were more than ready for the Gaels. Only 21 seconds had elapsed in the contest when winger Brett Stoner scored the first Bulldog goal on a pass from forward Tony Browne CSUF halfback Ed Winebrenner added a second goal eight minutes later St Mary's Roy Disney the Gael goalie, had hardly caught his breath before the Dogs scored again when halfback Tom Little headed in a Stoner pass to increase the margin to 3-0. The contest quickly became a laugher as Tony Browne, scored twice and Brett Stoner once to make the score 6-0 at the intermission. Coach Bereskin gave most of his starters a breather in the second half, only leaving first stringers Rick Strib- ling and Mike Reeder in the game. Reservers Tony Douglas, Fernando Gutierrez and brother Sergio Guiterrez accounted for the second half scoring to complete the slaughter. With the win the dogs improved their record in league to 1-3-1 This Friday, Bulldog fans will get a rare treat as the CSUF kickers will play Westmont College on the campus soccer field The match will begin at 3 p.m Although Westmont is an NAIA school, they have been a thorn in the Bulldog side for the past nine years. •Over the past nine years Fresno State has never beaten them, needless to say I hope to reverse that trend this year," Coach Bereskin said, 'With our team this season I see no reason to believe that we shouldn't " Coach Bereskin pointed out that while Westmont's record to date is 8-7 it is very decieving. 'Like Fresno SUte, Westmont plays some of the toughest competition in college soccer.' Cross Country The Fresno SUte Cross Country Team placed seventh in a field of twenty teams at the Stanford Invitational Meet at Palo Alto last Saturday. Alfred Lara (32:47); Jim Titford (3319), Dave Coulman (33:21); and Stu Sutherland (32:19) all recorded their best times ever for the 10,000 Other Bulldog placers were Miguel Santizo (32:26); Ceorge Aguirre (33:230; and Richard Aguirre (33:33). This weekend the CSUF team will take part in the Fresno Sute Fund Run. Water Polo When Mario Placenia scored a goal with 1:30 left in the contest, he not only provided the margin of victory over UOP but he also made history. Last Saturday's 13-12 triumph was Fresno State's first win ever over the visiting Tigers in water polo This was also the first league win of the season for the Bulldogs. They now stand 1-3 in league play and 4-9 overall. For the Dogs the win was sweet revenge because twice this season the Tigers have narrowly defeated them by 12-9 and 8-7 scores This weekend the Bulldogs will have three matches on the road. The MusUngs of Cal Poly San Luis Obispo will host Fresno State on Friday and on Saturday the 'Dogs will play UC. Santa Barbara in the morning at 11:00 and Cal State Los Angeles at 5 p.m.
