STOCKTON, Calif. -- Junior goalie Sydni Estrella (JR/Huntington Beach, CA) made 17 saves for the No. 6 seed Santa Clara Broncos to help them to a 14-8 victory over No. 7 seed Fresno Pacific in game four of the 2015 Golden Coast Conference Championships Friday at Chris Kjeldsen Pool in Stockton, Calif.
WIth the win, Santa Clara (15-14) advances to Saturday's fifth-place game against Azusa Pacific at 11:30 am. Fresno Pacific concludes their season at 7-24 overall.
Estrella made five saves in the first and third quarters, adding four more in the fourth quarter to keep the Sunbirds to just four goals. She was relieved in the fourth quarter. That opened the door for the Broncos offense, who got four goals from Elle Surber (JR/Pleasanton, CA).
The Broncos built a lead of 7-1 and coasted the rest of the way. Emily Woodruff (FR/Baytown, TX) and Kaeli Hanson (JR/Santa Maria, CA) had two goals each for Fresno Pacific.
