2024 COD Men's Soccer News
College of the Desert Women's Soccer and Men’s Soccer has hired Manuel “Pato” Hurtado to helm both Roadrunners programs.
Under the tutelage of first-year head coach Luis Gastelum, the #24 seeded Roadrunners Men's Soccer team ended the 2024 season claiming a 4th place finish in the Inland Empire Athletic Conference (IEAC).
COD Men's Soccer has claimed the #24 seed and after a one-year hiatus, is back in the SoCal Regional playoffs.
COD (6-6-2; 1-1) ramped up the offense and it paid huge dividends as the Roadrunners scored 3 goals to start the game then clamped down on defense to hold off a late surge by the Victor Valley Rams of Victorville (4-8-1; 0-2), 3-2.
COD (4-5-2) looked to get anything going and when they found themselves down 2-0 midway through the second half they responded in a big way, finding the back of the net twice in the second half and grabbing a tie with Los Angeles Mission Eagles of Sylmar (4-2-2), 2-2.
COD (2-2-1) grabbed their second clean sheet of the season on a solid defensive effort, as the Roadrunners remain undefeated against the Bakersfield Renegades (2-3), 2-0.
COD (1-2) grabbed their first win of 2024 in a clean sheet victory on the road at the Santa Ana Dons (0-2), 3-0.
