Cal Poly Loses to Cal State Northridge 1-0

Cal Poly men’s soccer coach Paul Holocher is working on implementing a new style. He has been talking about it since a preseason trip to Barcelona. His players have been energized by the new style and Cal Poly soccer fans are seeing more goals. While the transition process to the new style is firmly in-place, the results aren’t always there.

On Friday night, Cal State Northridge used a first-minute goal, packed defenders back, and held on for a 1-0 win. Cal Poly had numerous scoring opportunities. Most noteably, Chris Gaschen saw a shot ricochet off the right post during the second half.

In an interesting interview, Holocher was quiet after the game, but also seemed determined to not let a loss in a single game change the type of style he wants the Mustangs to play. Again, definitely worthwhile to take a listen. (Sorry for the slightly blurry video).
