2/23/25 - UCSD vs USD
It was a warm and sunny Sunday, and the Tritons were ready to show up and show out in their Morgan’s Message game against the University of San Diego. Morgan’s Message aims to break the stigma surrounding mental health in high school and collegiate athletics, making this matchup especially meaningful for the team. The Tritons’ Morgan’s Message ambassador, Grace Beatty, arrived at warm-ups with bows, shirts, stickers, and more, so the team could support the cause throughout their warm-ups and game. The Tritons carried this energy onto the field, jumping to an early 4-0 lead and maintaining control for most of the game. Heading into the fourth quarter, the Tritons held a comfortable lead, but USD found momentum and closed the gap to within two goals. However, the Tritons were able to put a few more goals in, securing an 11-8 victory. This win was a full-team effort—the defense and goalies worked hard to force turnovers and limit USD’s scoring opportunities, while the attackers worked together to find the back of the net. Playing for Morgan’s Message made this victory even more meaningful, and the Tritons were thrilled to take home the win.
