The Simon Fraser University Clan men’s soccer team open their home schedule tonight (Thursday) anything but road weary.

After traveling through California and then on to North Dakota, the Clan have racked up a perfect record of six wins and no losses.

The third-ranked Clan wrapped up their month-long road trip last weekend with a pair of dominating wins in Bismark, N.D. They beat the University of Mary Marauders 5-0 then followed that up last Saturday with a 6-0 pasting of Oklahoma Baptist university.

Coquitlam sophomore Matteo Polisi, a grad of Dr. Charles Best secondary school, had a goal and three assists against the Bison. That boosted his points total for the season to 20, tops in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference. He scored two goals and had an assist against the Marauders.

Polisi’s brother, Marcello, also figured on the scoresheet of Saturdays match against the Bison when he was ejected in the 83rd minute, in addition to four yellow cards that were shown to his teammates in the match.

“I’m disappointed with our lack of self control in the game that was under control,” SFU coach Clint Schneider said. “It was a big time lesson for my group about managing the game and our emotions.”

The Yellowjackets have three wins, three losses and draw in their seven non-conference matches.

Robillard debuts for women

The SFU women’s soccer team will travel to Bellingham, Wash. on Saturday for a match against 15th ranked Western Washington University.

The team is coming off a 4-1 win over conference rival Western Oregon University last Saturday in Burnaby. Centennial grad Danae Robillard made her first start as a midfielder, directing two shots towards the Wolves’ goal.

The Clan have three wins and a pair of losses so far this season. 

Footballers drubbed again

The SFU Clan football team will try to get back on the winning track where they started their season when the host Central Washington University at Terry Fox Field on Saturday at 6 p.m.

After opening the season with a big 54-7 over Div. III Willamette University that snapped SFU’s three-year losing streak, the Clan lost consecutive games to Azusa Pacific University and South Dakota School of Mines and Technology.

Coquitlam defensive end Isaac Evans, a grad of Terry Fox secondary, had five solo tackles including a sack, against the Hardrockers, while fellow Fox grad Brad Lyons was in on a pair of tackles, one of them a sack of the South Dakota quarterback.
