BERKELEY, Calif. – Assisted by a pair of first-half goals, the University of San Francisco men's soccer team (2-1) earned a 2-1 upset victory over No. 17 California (2-1) Thursday afternoon at Edwards Stadium.

  • The Dons held on in the final minutes of the contest, recording their fourth win over a nationally ranked opponent in the last three seasons.
