The Hawaii soccer team went down 3-0 at Cal State Fullerton on Thursday, its most lopsided defeat of the Big West season.
The Titans (11-4-3, 4-2-1 BWC) improved to 6-0 over UH (6-9-1, 1-5-1) as a conference opponent, this time punishing the Rainbow Wahine with a 22-2 shots advantage, including 13-0 on goal. The score would’ve been worse had UH goalkeeper Alexis Mata not saved a career-high 10 shots.
It was UH’s 11th straight loss on the Big West road, dropping it to 2-19-3 in six years of BWC away games.
Last-place UH wraps up the season at UC Riverside (7-10-2, 4-3) at 11 a.m. Sunday.
