TUCSON, Ariz. -- The University of Arizona women's soccer team suffered its third straight Pac- 10 loss on Friday, falling to California, 3-0, in front of a crowd of 371 at Murphey Stadium. The Wildcats slip to 8-10-1 overall and 2-6 in the Pac-10, while Cal improves to 10-7-1 overall and 5-3 in Pac-10 play.

Cal freshman midfielder Natalie Stuhlmueller put the Bears on the board first with her goal at the 25:56 mark, off a pass by senior forward Courtney Carroll. Sophomore midfielder Sarah Kaminsky iced the win for Cal when she took advantage of a mix-up in the goal mouth to dent the net at 76:54.
