It was a thrilling game there is no question about that but in the end the Warriors came up just short in a 4-3 loss to San Jose State on Saturday. The Warriors struck first when Adrienne Sorenson ran onto a 60 yard long ball from Melissa Phillips. Adrienne beat a defender and slipped the ball past the Spartan goalkeeper to give the Warriors a 1-0 advantage in the 11th minute. The Spartans tied the match in the 30th minute and took a 2-1 advantage in the 35th minute of the match. However, Adrienne struck again this time on a pass from Maryanne Sayles. Adrienne made a fantastic run to beat the back line and once again tucked the ball past the San Jose State goalkeeper. The Spartans took a 3-2 lead in the 67th minute and it looked like the Warriors had tied it in the 75th minute on a goal from Bri McClain. However, Bri's goal was called back for some mysterious reason. Five minutes later the Spartans made it 4-2. The Warriors battled back and scored again in the 85th minute when Lisa Garcia hit a terrific corner kick to the back post and Jade Adamson volleyed it into the net. The Warriors had a number of other opportunities to tie the game before the final whistle but couldn't convert.
