Cougars Post 3-0 Shutout to Begin CCAA Play

TURLOCK, Calif. – Scoring three unanswered goals, the Cal State San Marcos men's soccer team (4-3-1, 1-0-0 CCAA) began conference play with a 3-0 shutout at Stanislaus State (3-5-0, 0-1-0) on Friday night at Warrior Stadium.

CSUSM – 24' Kian Aminloo (Assisted by Nomar Ibarra)
CSUSM – 51' Vincent Saldivar (Penalty Kick)
CSUSM – 70' Ryan Meinardus (Assisted by EB Chinne)
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Off a corner kick from Curtis Collazos from the left side, Ibarra took a low, rolling shot from outside the box before Aminloo kicked the rebound off the keeper into the center of the goal to give CSUSM a 1-0 lead in the 24th minute.
  • CSUSM had a 1-0 lead after 45 minutes as it led in shots at 7-3 while putting five on goal. The Cougars also had six corner kicks for the period while the Warriors posted two.
  • The Cougars took a 2-0 lead in the 51st minute. After a Warrior foul in the box set the Cougars up for a penalty kick, Saldivar put a low shot into the right side of the goal while the Stanislaus keeper dove the opposite direction.
  • CSUSM put the game away in the 70th minute. Chinne intercepted a Stanislaus clear attempt out of the box and kicked the ball over to Meinardus in the middle of Warrior territory. Meinardus then took a shot from 10 yards outside of the box and hit the left post of the goal before the ball ricocheted into the back right corner and handed CSUSM a 3-0 lead in the 70th minute.
 
QUICK KICKS
  • This was CSUSM's first win in Turlock since 2018 and the Cougars are now 5-1-2 in the all-time series.
  • CSUSM has now won four of the last five meetings against Stanislaus.
  • The Cougars' three-goal win matched its largest margin of victory against the Warriors since CSUSM earned a 3-0 victory in the first meeting in 2015.
  • CSUSM outshot Stanislaus by a 17-5 margin while putting 10 shots on goal to the Warriors' four.
  • The Cougars had an 8-3 advantage on corner kicks.
  • Meinardus' goal was his team-leading fourth of the season while the goals by Aminloo and Ibarra were their first.
  • Ibarra led the game with three shots.
  • This is the second consecutive season in which CSUSM opened CCAA play with a 3-0 victory as they did the same against Cal State East Bay last season.
