Being second is not satisfying to any team. And the women's soccer team has had enough of it, so this season it is putting everything on the line to finish on top of the conference.

The young University of La Verne women's soccer team took to the field last Saturday to defend their impeccable 2-0 record against Southwestern, a competitor who hails from Houston, Texas. The story of this game was not about the score, but rather of how the team has come together.

After posting an overall record of 15-4 last season, the University of La Verne women's soccer team looks to rely on young talent to improve its mark this season, maybe even gaining a NCAA Division III playoff berth.

Claremont College was the site of a Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) Dual Meet as the University of La Verne made their presence known against conference rivals Claremont, Occidental and Redlands.

Though the women's soccer team did not finish in first place in SCIAC, that does not mean it is not one of the best teams in the conference. That was noted after senior midfielder Jacqui Zwissler was awarded player of the year this week.

Not expecting a bid to the NCAA Division III playoffs, the University of La Verne women's soccer team took the field Saturday against the Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Athenas and did what they do best, they had fun playing the game of soccer.
