RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. — The College of the Canyons men's soccer team opened its 2015 season with a tough 2-1 road loss to Chaffey College.

COC sophomore forward Oscar Sanchez netted the first goal of the season for the Cougars, giving his team a 1-0 lead. Sophomore Johnathan Trujillo assisted on the scoring play.
Canyons head coach Philip Marcellin's club would take its 1-0 lead into halftime, but couldn't hang on.
