UC Irvine came to Omaha with one goal scored and zero wins in their first four matches, but broke out in a big way offensively in handing the Creighton men’s soccer team their first home loss of the season on Friday night.
The Anteaters (1-3-1) scored their lone goal of the season in a 1-1 draw at Cal on September 1, but were shutout in losses to No. 11 Saint Mary’s, No. 6 Georgetown, and No. 4 Stanford. Against the Bluejays (2-2-1), however, they frequently exploited space in CU’s back line and found the back of the net three times.
