REDWOOD CITY – The Cañada College men's soccer team is surging at the right time. With Tuesday's 3-0 Coast Conference win over visiting Foothill College, the Colts extended their unbeaten streak to five games with just one left on the regular-season schedule.
The Colts host Ohlone College on Friday (Nov. 15) at 12:30 p.m. in their final contest before the postseason. With an 11-3-6 overall record and 7-2-3 mark in conference games, Cañada has likely secured an at-large bid into the upcoming Northern California Regional Playoffs.
Heading into Friday's finale, the Colts currently hold the third-highest power points ranking among NorCal teams.
On Tuesday, the Colts and Foothill battled in a scoreless opening half. But Cañada's Justin Galvez put the squad on his back by scoring three times over the final 45 minutes for hat trick and the win.
Galvez tallied goals in the 60th, 68th, and 86th minute and got assists from Christopher Paz-Rodriguez, Daniel Schembri, and Vlad Tomutiu. Goalkeeper Anthony Montoya totaled 4 saves on his way to the Colts' second straight shutout and ninth of the season.
