Sola’s son and coach, Isidro Sanchez, has taken over control of the team, which extended its winless streak to eight games Saturday. Raul Mendiola leads the team with nine goals in 18 appearances.
About Orange County: Three games remain on the schedule for Orange County (18-7-6), which is in first place in the Western Conference by one point over the Phoenix Rising FC.
