Travis Bowen scores two as LA Galaxy II defeat Fresno Fuego in preseason friendly


LA Galaxy II moved forward with their preseason preparations with a 4-1 victory over PDL side Fresno Fuego at Chukchansi Park on Saturday. 


Travis Bowen scored two goals in the first half while Lee Nishanian and Mackenzie Pridham added goals in the second half. Paul Islas scored the lone goal of the evening for the Fuego.


Bowen put Galaxy II ahead after just 11 minutes off dish from Joe Franco. It did not take long for Bowen to add a second as the forward notched his second just 15 minutes later with Raul Mendiola playing the distributor. Islas capitalized on a Los Dos defensive breakdown to pull the Fuego to within one in the 55th minute, but Galaxy II soon extended their lead as Nishanian headed in a corner in the 66th minute. Pridham rounded out the scoring for Los Dos just moments before full time. 


Los Dos will begin the 2015 USL regular season on March 22 when they host Real Monarchs SLC at the StubHub Center Track and Field Stadium.
