After falling behind in the 47th minute, UCSB struck back instantly via Kaden Standish’s header to tie it, then sealed the victory with Bjornsson’s rocket. Goalkeeper Owen Beninga made seven saves, including a clutch stop late, while Cole Harris delivered a stellar debut in goal. With a 3-1-2 record, the Gauchos return home for key matchups against San Diego State and top-25 Oregon State — the latter part of their Welcome Weekend celebration.
