This ideal year-round environment posts an average daytime temperature of 70 degrees, with an annual rainfall average of less than 10 inches.

Tareras /limingtar4thStraightNC/Ill Tournament The University of San Diego women's soccer team enters the 2002 season looking to qualify for their fourth consecutive NCAATourna– ment. The Toreros return 13 letter winners and welcome six new– comers to a team that will open the 2002 campaign against #11 UCLA in Los Angeles on Friday, August 30th at 2:00 PM . Two days later San Diego will play in Torero Stadium (home of the WUSA:s San Diego Spirit), opening their home schedule against UC Santa Barbara on September 1st at 1:00 PM.
USO is just one year removed from setting a school record , win– ning 10-of-11 games in Torero Stadium; the 2002 Toreros are faced with a schedule that has USO playing the bulk of their key games on the road . Four preseason Soccer Buzz Top-25 programs , as many PAC-10 opponents and a date with the defending national champion Santa Clara Broncos highlight USD's road schedule this fall. "We are really taking on the Pac-10 and the WCC , the two stron– gest conferences out west, " says fifth-year head coach John Cossaboon. "A good number of our games are on the road against teams like Arizona State , Santa Clara, USC, and UCLA. Those are hard games to begin with . Add the road contests , and yes it becomes more difficult, but those are challenges we need to step up to and overcome."
San Diego junior Brenna Mullen
Cossaboon must find a way to replace seven graduated seniors, including record- setting keeper Leila Duren, team captains Gina Poltl and Claire Currie, and offensive threats Stephanie Barnier and Casey Loveland . The loss of key personnel may be a reason the Toreros are picked to finish fifth in the West Coast Conference. However, the Toreros have never experienced a losing season in conference play, and have never placed lower than fourth since 1994.
The Toreros will counter with a very talented group of young players. Junior all conference defensive members Alexis Obeji and Cristina Romero should help keeper Libby Bassett get accustomed to tending net for an entire 20- game season . Bassett, a 5-11 junior from Seattle, is ex– pected to be the Toreros' starting goalkeeper in 2002 af– ter solid play through six games as a sophomore. Bassett and senior midfielder Rebecca Smith are the 2002 team captains on a squad that is adjusting well to all the ros– ter changes early on . "It is a lot of fun being down at training right now, and that says a lot in terms of our hopes for this season ," added Cossaboon. "This is a new group with lots of dif– ferent people coming in that will make major impacts . We are seeing very positive things day to day and our early expectations have risen from what we have seen

Smith and fellow senior and two– time all-conference performer Val Strocco will provide Cossaboon with experience at the midfield position. Starters Katie Allen and Andrea Keesling both return off of strong seasons in 2001. Allen scored two game-winning goals including an unassisted score to beat USC 1-0. Keesling , a sophomore from Thousand Oaks , started every game dur– ing an AII-WCC honorable men– tion season as a rookie.

#18 Ranking, 14Wins Highlight 2001Season It was another banner year for the San Diego women 's soccer program in 2001 . The Toreros qualified for their third straight NCAATournament and set a school record with a 10-1 mark in Torero Stadium. USO jumped out of the gates win– ning their first five matches, and would finish the regular season winning nine of their last twelve . Fifth-year Head Coach John Cossaboon directed a team comprised of seven seniors and an accomplished mix of young players. The group of veteran play– ers , led by keeper Leila Duren and midfielder Gina Poltl put their mark on the 2001 season and on the San Diego program throughout their Torero careers. Senior teammates Stephanie Barnier and Casey Loveland supplied the bulk of USD's offense in 2001 for a team that earned national recognition and contin– ued to be one of the best teams on the West Coast. On October 25th the Toreros played host to the upstart Pepperdine Waves . Pepperdine came to San Diego ranked 20th in the nation and was looking to pass up San Diego as one of the top three teams in the conference. Late in the

second half Pepperdine held a 2-1 advantage when the Toreros began a comeback. Midfielder Brooke Roby, a starter in 17 of San Diego's 21 games as a true freshman , scored from 20-yards out to even the match in the 7sth minute. Then moments later Poltl fired a shot past Wave goalie Lindsey Broullette, allowing San Diego a dramatic 3-2 win in front of 669 ecstatic fans at Torero Stadium. The victory improved USD's conference record to 4-1 and solidified the Toreros place among the league's best. Before USO entered conference play in October, the Toreros completed the early season schedule with wins over USC, Baylor and Arkansas . Stephanie Barnier's overtime goal against Baylor allowed the Toreros to start the season 4-0. Barnier, who scored a USO record 14 goals as a junior, also netted the game-winner against UC Santa Barbara in the season 's opener. After defeating Baylor, USO faced four consecutive PAC-10 opponents. On September 18 th the USC Women ofTroy came to San Diego and were turned away 1-0 thanks to sophomore Katie Allen. An unassisted breakaway goal by Allen was the difference, improving San Diego's record to 5-0 while earning a #18 national ranking . A pair of losses
