GLAD TO BE BACK!! CHABOT ROLLS IN OPENER

New season. New coach. Sweet opener.
The Chabot College women's soccer team kicked off the 2023 season with a rousing 5-0 nonconference win over visiting Marin on Tuesday afternoon.
Guided by first-year head coach Dan Chubbock, the Glads (1-0) led 2-0 at halftime on goals by Marin Michieli off a Natalia Lumley assist and a penalty kick by Margarita Vinciguerra after a handball.
Michieli added a goal and an assist in the second half. Lumley had the goal off the Michieli pass, and Emily Hornig also found the net.
"We played well," said a pleased Chubbock, noting the Glads "completely  dominated the second half as Marin tired."
The impressive triumph came in Chabot's first match since the 2021 season; the program was dormant in 2022.
Chubbock expects a much tougher test at Diablo Valley College on Sept. 5 in the team's next game, which "will give us a true gauge of where we are at. … Lots still to improve upon, but great to get a win to start the season!" the coach said.
