For the first time in almost two years, Citrus College hit the dirt but dropped an 8-2 loss to Pasadena City College on Opening Day.

The Owls start the year 0-1, while the Lancers begin the 2022 campaign 1-0.

Citrus had five hits in the game, including a two-run homer from Chad Green to get the Owls on the board first. Santiago Castro, Robert Valdivia, Devon Diaz, and Nicholas Santiago each had hits in the game.

Kaj James got the start on the mound for Citrus and struck out five batters.

The Owls continue the season on Saturday, hosting East Los Angeles at 1:00 p.m.
