Pac-12 men’s soccer scores for Sunday, Nov. 24
Fourth-Seeded Cal Advances, Beats Bradley 3-1
The California men’s soccer team returned to form just when it needed to. After ending the regular season losing four of their last six, including the last two, the fourth-seeded Golden Bears took care of business Sunday against Bradley, winning 3-1 in the second round of the NCAA tournament. Alec Sundly scored two goals for Cal (13-4-2), which will return to action next Sunday in the postseason’s third round.
All the Stanford men’s soccer team needed on Sunday to advance to the third round of the NCAA men’s soccer tournament was a heavy dose of defense — and Matt Taylor’s head.

Stanford (10-6-4) will face Pac-12 foe Washington next Sunday.
