The Southwestern Oregon Community College men’s soccer team opened the season with a 3-0 loss to Whatcom on Saturday. All three goals came in the opening half.
Southwestern coach Ray Fabien said his freshman players adjusted well in the second half.
“I think it took a while to realize at the college level it’s a lot more physical than the high school level,” Fabien said. “It’s not a good way to start the season, but we played really well as a team. It’s going to take a while, but this team will be really good.”
