Santa Ana Dons faced off against the Cypress Charges an evenly contested match that finished as a draw, in the last seven minutes of the game.

The Chargers got on the board with a Penalty Kick in the 83rd minute by midfielder Nomar Ibarra making the score 1-0.

Dons began to put pressure on the Cypress Defense which made the Chargers commit a foul in the box which awarded them a penalty kick of their own in the 88th minute.

Sophomore defenseman Joshua Castellon took the shot and put it in the back of the net making the game 1-1. 

“It was back and forth, it was hard with not many chances. The one chance we got I put it in,” Castellon said. 

The Dons next game will be against Irvine Valley College at Irvine Valley on Friday, November 8, at 3:00 pm.
