Both Cal Poly Humboldt teams will continue conference play on the road this week, while the College of the Redwoods women will open league play at Shasta on Friday.
The CR women are coming off a 6-6 tie at Napa Valley on Tuesday, after posting their second win of the season at Marin on Saturday by a score of 3-0.
Redwoods is now 2-5-1 on the season.
And there has been no shortage of goals in the team’s games, with at least three in every contest and an average of 6.4 in the eight games the team has played thus far.
Friday’s Golden Valley Conference opener should be competitive with each team posting almost identical records going into the game.
Shasta is 2-5-2.
The CR women will also play at Butte the following Friday before hosting games on five consecutive Tuesdays in October and early November.
The two Cal Poly Humboldt squads will also be on the road this week, with conference games at Cal State San Bernardino and Cal State Dominguez Hills on Friday and Sunday.
The Humboldt women are 2-0 in the California Collegiate Athletic Association after posting back-to-back one-goal wins over Menlo and Cal State East Bay this past weekend.
Heidie Munoz netted twice in a 2-1 win over Menlo, and Lucy Al-Chokhachy scored the only goal of the game in a 1-0 win over East Bay.
The Jacks have been an exciting team to watch thus far, with no more than one goal separating them and their opponents in their last five games, including three shutouts by Humboldt.
The Humboldt women, who are in a five-way tie for the early-conference lead, are now 4-2-2 overall.
Friday’s game kicks off at 3 p.m.
The Humboldt men, meanwhile, will try to get back to winning ways at San Bernardino after dropping their second conference game on Sunday.
After beating Menlo 3-0 in Friday’s conference opener, the Jacks fell 4-1 to East Bay on Sunday.
Former Arcata Tiger Izaiah Grosveld netted the only goal of the game against East Bay, his third of the season.
Dominic Calero assisted on the goal.
The Jacks are now 2-3-3 overall.
Friday’s game kicks off at noon.
