Men’s Soccer: No. 13 Rio Hondo edges LA Mission 1-0

Adan Villareal's second-half goal proved to be the game-winner for the No. 13 state-ranked Rio Hondo College men's soccer team in a narrow 1-0 victory over visiting Los Angeles Mission College on Tuesday.

Goalkeeper Arturo Bustamante and Roadrunners' defense posted their fifth shutout in eight games this season. The non-conference win improved the Roadrunners to 6-1-1 overall while Mission dropped to 1-6-2.

Neither team could find the back of the net until Villareal broke free for his unassisted goal in the 77th minute. Bustamante totaled six saves in an outstanding effort.

The Roadrunners return to action on Friday (Oct. 1) when they close out their non-conference schedule with a 2 p.m. game at Chaffey.
