The UC San Diego Tritons picked up a strong road win over the UC Irvine Anteaters in Irvine, defeating the Anteaters 16–4.

Coming off a slower win the night before in Los Angeles, the Tritons were eager to build better momentum. The first quarter was tightly contested, ending in a 2–2 tie as both teams settled in early.

The Tritons began to find their rhythm through strong hustle plays, highlighted by key ground balls from Grace Beatty, Hope Amend, and Christina Keung. Defensively, Savannah Kezmoh created several crucial takeaways, contributing to her recognition as the WCLA Defensive Player of the Week.

Offensively, the Tritons were led by hat tricks from Morgan Arrasmith and Leila Mazhari, each scoring three goals. Senior defender Hope Amend also found the back of the net on a transition breakaway, capping off a standout two-way performance.

Control at the draw circle helped swing momentum in the Tritons’ favor, with the speed and persistence of Sasha Franklin helping UC San Diego dominate possession.

After the close opening quarter, the Tritons surged ahead offensively—scoring 5 goals in the 2nd quarter and 6 more in the 3rd—to pull away for the decisive 16–4 victory. It was a strong road performance for UC San Diego as the team now looks ahead to a week of home games, with matchups against Fullerton College Hornets and the USD Toreros on the horizon.
