Mahler scores four more

Freshman Jaycee Mahler’s record-breaking assault continued

unimpeded Tuesday as she scored four goals to lead Orange Coast College’s

women’s soccer team to a 9-0 rout of host Fullerton in Orange Empire

Conference play.

Mahler, with 28 goals, snapped Taylor Yurada’s season record of 24 and

she is six goals shy of tying Yurada’s two-year career goals record of

34.

Nikki Saenz was also a standout on Tuesday, scoring three goals for

the Pirates, who improved to 14-3, 10-1 in the OEC.

Goalkeeper Laurie Perkins stopped three shots to record her sixth

shutout of the season.

Coast remains one point behind front-running Cypress, which beat Santa

Ana on Tuesday, 4-0. The Pirates host Cypress on Friday at 3 p.m.
