Pirates fall, 1-0

Orange Coast College saw its six-game unbeaten streak snapped on

Tuesday as visiting Irvine Valley claimed a 1-0 Orange Empire Conference

victory.

With the shutout loss, the Bucs have now gone 231 minutes of game time

without scoring, dating back to a goal by Chance Daniel in the 239th

minute of Coast’s 3-1 win over Santiago Canyon Sept. 25.

Lee Berry scored the only goal of the game in the 10th minute, netting

a goal two passes after a Laser free kick. He scored from out about 25

yards out on the right side, hooking the ball just inside the right post

in a spot that was virtually impossible for Pirate goalie Joey Balbas to

defend.

The Pirates fall to 5-5-2, 2-1-1 in the OEC. The Lasers improve to

3-5-3, 1-1-2.

Coast outshot Irvine Valley, 11-6, but could not finish its

opportunities.
