RIVERSIDE – CBU women's soccer heads to Long Beach for a Saturday night matchup against Long Beach State, with kickoff set for 7 p.m. at George Allen Field.
The Lancers (6-1-3, 1-1-2) are coming off back-to-back scoreless ties against two of the Big West's top teams in UC San Diego and UC Santa Barbara, which currently sits atop the conference standings. The results extended CBU's season shutout total to nine, tying the Division I-era program record set by the 2025 team.
Long Beach State (6-2-5, 0-1-3) enters the matchup still searching for its first Big West victory. The Beach fell 4-3 to CSUN before playing Sacramento State to a 2-2 draw last week.
