ASU soccer finished its final road trip of the season Sunday by falling to Oregon 4-0.
The Sun Devils (6-8-2, 1-6-1 Pac-12) played the Ducks (8-8-1, 2-6-0 Pac-12) with three big offensive performers out for the game. Redshirt senior Lucy Lara, junior forward Jazmarie Mader and junior midfielder Aly Moon watched helplessly as their team picked up its fourth straight loss.
From the beginning, ASU trailed Oregon after redshirt senior midfielder Maryn Beutler scored the first goal in the fifth minute.

ASU held Oregon after the first goal all the way to halftime. By the half, the Sun Devils took five shots with the Ducks taking seven.
However, Oregon dominated ASU in the second frame and scored three more goals to extend its lead to 4-0.
A one-on-one opportunity between freshman goalkeeper Emma Malsy and Oregon's sophomore midfielder Bayley Bruner earned the Ducks' second goal of the game in the 47th minute.
The third goal for Oregon came in the 48th minute after sophomore midfielder Marissa Everett took a shot on goal, but was deflected by Malsy. Junior midfielder Abby Morrow followed the shot and was able to tap in the deflection from Malsy putting Oregon up 3-0.
The fourth and final goal from Oregon happened off a penalty kick after Malsy took down Everett near the top of the box. Sophomore midfielder Sofia Chambers took the penalty kick in the 50th minute and scored her first goal of the season.
