The Fresno City College women’s soccer team dominated every aspect of the game in its 10-0 shutout victory of College of the Sequoias.

This win improves the Rams record to 15-3-2, while the College of the Sequoias fall to 3-7 on Nov. 4 in Fresno.

The Rams started the first half on fire by controlling the time of possession and keeping the ball on College of the Sequoia’s side of the field.

Their offense resulted in one goal by Rosalina Platas and two by Jasmine Garibay in the first five minutes of game time, giving the Rams a 3-0 lead.

The Rams would continue to control the game by advancing the ball for more strikes at goal, and by limiting COS any breathing room to try to get themselves back into the game.

The team kept COS to only having three strikes at the FCC side of the net.

The Rams would continue their success, scoring three more — two by Platas capping off her three goals of the game, and one by freshman forward Juliet Trembley to end the half with a 6-0 lead.

Rams’ freshman forward, Rosalina Platas, said she was thrilled about how she and her team played and the way that gave her the opportunity for a three-goal hat trick in the first half.

“We executed fast and whenever we are able to do that; we normally have a great game,” Platas said.

“Scoring those three goals was overwhelming. The first goal I made was my first of the season and my teammates gave me the opportunity to score two more so it was a great day for me.”

The second half lead to the Rams having a sluggish start. Players were late on passes, and missed wide open shots at goal, letting COS get the ball on their side of the field.

Despite this,  the Rams maintained their lead with a solid defensive front and did not give COS a chance to put a dent in their lead.

Rams’ head coach, Oliver Germond, said he was pleased by how the team performed during the first half, but was not happy with how the second half started for them.

Germond said it is a learning curve for things they need to fix as the playoffs are right around the corner.

“I like how we came out strong, as it is something that we have been lacking these past few games, so it was good to see that,” said Germond.

“Our second half was a little sluggish to start, but I liked how we maintained control in not giving the other team a chance to come back, and that is what we have to do heading into the postseason.”

The defensive pressure would take its toll on COS with the Rams coming back from their early second half slump by scoring four more goals.

Two came from Anissa Wilson and one goal each from Jasmine Garibay and Cassandra Sandoval, making a 10-0 lead to close out the game for the Rams.

Heading into the postseason, freshman midfielder Juliet Trembley wants her team to be as sharp as they can be knowing that they will face tougher opponents ahead.

“We just have to have more opportunities to finish balls into the net, giving us greater control going into each game,” Trembley said. “With each new game that gets tougher, we need to be able to do that.”
