Michael Preis, the leading scorer on the Cal State Northridge men’s soccer team, enters the match at Stanford today with a three-match scoring streak.

Preis, a freshman forward from Chatsworth High, has scored in four of Northridge’s five matches. He is third in the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation in goals and sixth in the circuit with 18 points.

Luis Mesta, a freshman from Poly High, leads the Mission College men’s soccer team with 11 goals in nine matches. Mission, which plays at Orange Coast today at 3:30, is 4-3-2.

Northridge middle blocker Getty Dimitrova ranks third in the Big Sky Conference with an average of 4.34 kills. She also ranks fourth in hitting percentage (.341) and seventh in blocking average (1.14). The 6-foot-4 junior led the Matadors with 126 kills and 33 blocks going into Thursday’s match against Montana State.

The 36-35 loss to Thousand Oaks was Hart’s first in eight seasons under Coach Mike Herrington when the Indians held a lead of at least 14 points in the fourth quarter.

L.A. Baptist set or tied three school records on offense against Mojave last Friday night. Quarterback Peter Dirksen had 366 yards passing and 43 rushing, breaking the mark for total offense in a game of 385 set by Zack Hernandez in 1993.

Tim Feirfeil’s 11 catches tied him with Jim Romero and Dana Berg (both in 1993) for the single-game mark, and his 227 receiving yards broke Romero’s single-game record of 196 (also in 1993).

The record-setting performances were bittersweet for the Knights, who lost, 49-38.

And while Knights Coach Mark Bates was impressed with the numbers, he said they could have been even better.

“They both played lousy in the first quarter,” he said.

Calabasas (2-0) has had a run-based offense in routing its first two opponents by a combined score of 86-8. But when Coyote quarterback Scott Quigley has passed he has completed 10 of 16 for 244 yards and six touchdowns. The average length of a Quigley completion is 24.4 yards.
