The University of La Verne men's soccer team took on the Boxers from Pacific University at Ben Hines Field Sunday afternoon, but fell in a 6-0 final.

Kisamua Tsutakawa scored the Boxers' first goal off a Patrick Murray and Travis Birrell assist. Birrell collected his second assist on a Mike Iacloucci goal later in the 22nd minute. La Verne made runs at the goal taking four shots in the first half, but would trail 3-0 heading into halftime after a Jasem Jaihouni goal on a penalty kick.

La Verne increased its physical play in the second half, resulting in three yellow cards (Trujillo, Parada, and Umansor). Fouls hurt the Leopards as Jaihouni was able to score once on a direct kick and again on another penalty kick. Ruma Perez's goal from Mike Kawajiri and Jaihouni would cap off a 6-0 final in favor of Pacific.

Pacific outshot La Verne 18-8, with freshman Ryan Thompson to make four saves for the Leopards.

The Leopards will fly out to Pennsylvania next weekend to take on Franklin & Marshall and Elizabethtown still searching for their first win of the 2009 season. The first match will begin at 2 pm on the Sept. 11 against Franklin & Marshall.
