No. 19 SOU stays hot with 2-0 defeat of Oregon Tech

ASHLAND – The Southern Oregon men's soccer team continued to make it look easy in a 2-0 win against Oregon Tech on Saturday at Raider Stadium. With two games left, its Cascade Conference title defense it almost complete.

After getting some help Friday from Eastern Oregon, which upset No. 10 Corban, the No. 19 Raiders helped themselves in the final home game of the regular season with their 10th shutout victory. In extending their unbeaten streak to 14 games, they were in control from the start: Less than five minutes into the game, Mitchell Pinney marked his Senior Night with his fifth goal of the season, a volley from 13 yards out that was assisted by Zac Hansen.

Insurance was added in the 42nd minute on one of their prettiest goals yet. Esteban Castaneda lined a pass just right of the post, which Kelly Gieber saved from going out of bounds by heading it back to Noah Addie, who sent a second header into the net for his team-leading 10th goal.

The Raiders will take a 13-2-1 overall record and 10-0-1 mark in the CCC to Montana next weekend, concluding the regular season at Providence and Carroll. With three points, they'd clinch a share of their second straight conference title. With four, they'd clinch the title outright and secure a spot in the NAIA Tournament.

Second-place Corban stands at 8-1-1 in the CCC with three games left. Oregon Tech went to 6-7-2 and 5-5-1, tied for seventh place.

The Raiders finished with a 12-9 advantage in shots. Keeper Wyatt Zabinksi secured their 11th shutout overall by making five saves.

While going 7-0-1 at home, the Raiders have given up one goal. They've given up just two in conference play – in lopsided wins over Multnomah and Walla Walla, which sit at the bottom of the standings.
