Davis, Calif. -
Max Glasser and
Zack Lillington found the back of the net in the second half but the Aggies fell 3-2 to San Jose State on Wednesday evening at Aggie Soccer Field.
Wednesday's match marked the final non-conference home game of the season for UC Davis. The next time the Aggies will play in front of the home faithful will be on Sept. 28 against Cal Poly.
The Aggies fell behind early on San Jose State goals in the sixth, 27th, and 36th minutes to go into halftime trailing 3-0.
Out of the break the Aggies showed renewed pace and urgency though. UC Davis outshot the Spartans 12-1 in the second half and created five corners in the second half alone.
Glasser's goal in the 68th minute came off a deep cross in the middle of the field by
Ethan Hoard that was redirected by
Kevin Welch to a waiting Glasser who only had to tap in to put UC Davis on the board.
Lillington's score came just after an Aggie corner with the freshman defender seeing his first shot go off the far post and a shot by
Kevin Welch saved before Lillington was able to put it in on the rebound. It was Lillington's first career goal.
Hoard led UC Davis with six shots.
UC Davis will not see game action until next Tuesday, Sept. 20 when the Aggies travel to Pacific. They'll play their final non-conference game later that week on Sept. 24 at Santa Clara.
