STOCKTON, Calif. — Three Pacific (Calif.) goals in a seven-minute stretch in the first half left the Portland State women's soccer team on the wrong end of a 3-1 loss to the Tigers Sunday.
 
The Vikings (2-3-0) went up 1-0 on a 25th-minute goal from freshman Ellie Vasey, but the Tigers (2-3-1) scored three goals in a seven-minute stretch from the 31st to 37th minutes in the first half. Alex Hussar scored the Tigers' equalizer just past the 30-minute mark in the first half, before Jessica Fogel scored back-to-back goals within a stretch of 80 seconds in the 36th and 37th minutes.
 
The poor stretch ended up costing the Vikings, who couldn't find a goal to get back in the match after that.
 
The three-goal stretch put a damper on Vasey's first career goal as a Viking, which came off the first-career assist from sophomore midfielder Liv Jillings. Jillings fed Vasey from the left on the play, sending her a ball across the box that Vasey then fired into the top shelf of the net.
 
Vasey accounted for three of the Vikings' five shots on goal in the match, and now stands as the Vikings' fifth-different goal scorer this season.
 
The Vikings will look to bounce back when they return to the state of Oregon for a match at Oregon State Friday at 7 p.m.
