And heres the recap for mens soccer: The Phoenix College Bears Mens Soccer team have set the stage to clinch their first outright ACCAC Regular Season title in the programs history after dispatching the Paradise Valley Pumas, 6-0, at Hogan Field at Hoy Stadium on the Phoenix College campus Thursday night. The shutout-combined with Yavapais 1-0 loss to Arizona Western in Yuma Thursday-puts the Bears 1/2 game ahead of the Roughriders with one game remaining for each team on the regular season schedule. The Bears found the defense of the Pumas (3-16 overall, 3-16 ACCAC) in the first half, managing only 6 shots on goal, but ending the scoreless tie in the games 27th minute, thanks to Anthony Tokpahs 8th goal of the season.

PCs Sakae Iohara-coming back from injury to play his first game in over a month-scored the Bears 2nd goal on a penalty kick, then watched teammate Josue Henriquez put his team-leading 10th goal of the season in the net less than a half-minute later to give PC a 3-0 lead.
