HAYWARD, Calif.—Unlike almost every other soccer team in the USA, the Hawaii Hilo teams don't get the opportunity to have preseason scrimmages or exhibitions, because of their remote location.

Although the Vulcan women's team was not able to log preseason minutes, they are making up for it in a hurry.

Two matches in, UH Hilo has played 39 minutes and 30 seconds of extra time—a total of almost 220 minutes overall. The Vulcans went 110 minutes today (two overtimes) at Cal State East Bay before settling for a 0-0 deadlock with their hosts at Pioneer Stadium.

The Vulcans lost on Saturday to Cal State Monterey Bay 2-1, when the Otters scored the game winner with just 30 seconds left in the second overtime.

"We have to find a way to get our offense going," said Vulcan head coach Gene Okamura. "I am very happy with their work ethic right now, we just need to put away our opportunities on offense."

The Pioneers had the edge overall in shots (21-13), but the Vulcans led in shots on goal (10-8). The Pioneers had a 7-4 edge in corner kicks.

"Bailey came up big today for sure," Okamura said of his senior keeper Bailey Cahill. "On offense, we had some really good opportunities, but seemed to put each one of them right at their goalie."

Cahill had eight saves in the match, while CSUEB goalkeeper Jordan Smith had 10. UHH's Crystal Sanchez had three shots on goal and Brende Yoshizumi had a pair for the Vulcans.

The Vulcans will now head to Nampa, Idaho for a pair of matches. On Thursday, they take on host Northwest Nazarene (7:30 p.m. MT), followed by a Saturday contest versus Central Washington (2:30 p.m. MT).
