In the post-season, the difference between victory and defeat is sometimes a razor-thin margin. Although the Pirates' women's soccer team dropped their first-round playoff contest to Orange Coast Saturday in overtime, it could have just as easily been VC advancing. Freshman Abigail Littleton has been solid all season, and showed her strength and resolve Saturday night when she scored a game-tying goal in the 73rd minute of action, sending the game to the extra period. The freshman from Simi Valley High School was second on the team with six goals on the season, and has been named this week's VC Pirate Student Athlete of the Week sponsored by Pacific Aire Heating and Cooling.
