After the Pioneers raced out to an early one goal lead, Cal got a hat trick from senior forward
Katie Benz to send the Bears past DU 4-2.
Forward Kristen Hamilton scored on a pass from forward Kaitlin Bast and fired past diving Cal
goalkeeper Emily Kruger.
Cal's Benz would start the second half just as quickly as Hamilton started the first, scoring in
the 47th minute to tie the score at 1-1.
DU scored twice in the second half to tie No. 11 Notre Dame 2-2 on a rainy Friday evening at
Notre Dame's Alumni Stadium.
"Our group showed a lot of character to come back from two down against a quality team in Notre
Dame," head coach Bobby Muuss said. "Like Creighton, they are an opponent that can certainly be
playing the last weekend of the season.
University of Denver midfielder Brian Hoyt scored both Pioneers goals, but the College of
Charleston put three tallies on the scoreboard to defeat the Pioneers 3-2 at CIBER Field at the
University of Denver Soccer Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
"I didn't think we played particularly well in any portion of the game, but I guess we were good
enough to get two back," said head coach Bobby Muuss.
