Northwest -- Seadog Losing Streak Reaches Nine

SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Armando Valdivia's goal put Seattle ahead 1-0 less than five minutes into the game, but the SeaDogs didn't score again and lost 5-1 to the Sacramento Knights.

The defeat, at Arco Arena last night, was the ninth straight for the SeaDogs (1-10) of the Continental Indoor Soccer League.

Sacramento set a club record for fewest goals allowed in a regular-season game. Jeff Alcala scored two goals and assisted on one, and Jon Parry extended his consecutive-game scoring streak to 36 with a goal for the Knights.

Seattle outshot Sacramento 28-21.
