WAIPAHU, Hawaii – College soccer games are often decided on set pieces.

After walking the tightrope through five corner kicks, Oregon's luck ran out on Sacramento State's sixth set piece when Jaety Mandaquit found the net in a scrum off of a deflected corner in the 64^th minute. The game's lone goal allowed the Hornets to escape with a 1-0 win Thursday at the Outrigger Soccer Kickoff.

Oregon (1-1-1) dropped its first decision of the season despite outshooting Sacramento State (2-0-0), 20-6.

How It Happened: The Ducks controlled the first half, holding Sacramento State without a shot while attempting eight of their own.

Hawaii native Carly Cormack sent two shot shots on goal in the opening frame.

Sacramento State began to flip the momentum in the final 15 minutes of the first half. While the Hornets didn't manage a shot of their own, they held Oregon to a lone attempt by Addisen Boyer in the final minute of the period.

Sacramento State continued to control possession after halftime. The Hornets attempted three shots in the first 12 minutes of the second half prior to Mandaquit's goal.

Oregon nearly found the net in the 58th minute when the ball bounced to Lauren Kenny's feet on a corner kick. She got a toe on the ball and poked it past the Hornets' goalkeeper before a defender cleared the ball off the goal line.

Taylor Bryan had Oregon's best opportunity for a late equalizer. She received a pass behind the Hornets' defense deep on the right side and fired a shot at point-blank range, but Sacramento State keeper Izzy Palmatier charged out of the net to make the save.

Notable: Bryan, Kenny and Cormack led Oregon with four shots … Cormack's four shots set a career-high … Abella Hunter, a 2024 Big West All-Freshman selection last season at UC Davis, made her Oregon debut and had a shot in 24 minutes … Oregon played 243 minutes before conceding its first goal of the 2025 season … The one goal allowed through three games is the Ducks' best defensive effort since the 2016 team allowed just one score in its first three contests.

Up Next: Oregon will face tournament host Hawai'i Sunday at 7 PM PT.
