Bruins 2-0 After Win Over 8th Ranked Cal Poly
UCLA started their road game Saturday on fire, going up 4-0 just nine minutes into the first half. The Cal Poly Mustangs fought back, bringing the score at halftime to a tight 5-3, with the Bruins leading. The Bruins' defense dominated play, holding the Mustangs to just 7 shots on goal in the final 30 minutes, 5 of which were saved by goalie Devon Comito. Two turnovers by Comito resulted in Cal Poly's only goals of the second half.
Saturday's win puts UCLA at 2-0 in overall WCLA play, and 1-0 in the WWLL Division 1 Central. Next up, the Bruins travel to Santa Barbara where they will face Michigan State on Friday evening, followed by 11th ranked Georgia and University of Oregon over the weekend.
