PORTLAND, Ore. --- The Portland Pilots dominated possession throughout the second half, Hannah Griffiths Boston hit the crossbar with a header, and Natalie Muth had a shot cleared off the goal line as the San Diego Toreros escaped Merlo Field with a 1-0 win on Thursday night. USD's Summer Mason claims the game-winner, which came in the 76th minute.
The Pilots (5-10-1, 2-4-0 WCC) refused to falter following the San Diego (7-9-0, 5-1-0 WCC) goal, and in the 81st minute Kaycie Young found Ellie Walker with a pass inside the 18-yard box. Walker tried to finish first time with a shot towards the near post, but San Diego keeper Amber Michel was there for the save.
