The Cougs just returned from their road trip in California and Washington. Their first match was against Santa Clara where both teams went scoreless for 110 minutes. The Broncos are the fourth team this season with a top 25 ranking to go up against the Cougs. It was Niki Fernandes first game back and she had two shots on goal. The girls then headed to Spokane to play Gonzaga. There were no goals in the first half, and Gonzaga came out early in the second half and put one away. The Cougs answered back with a goal from Lauren Crosby. Kyleigh Royall scored the second goal shortly after on a cross from Carlee Payne. The third goal came off a cross from Niki Fernandes and it was an own goal in the 81st minute of the game. Gonzaga fought hard, and put one away with a few minutes left in the game to keep it exciting up to the very end. Mckinzie Olson became BYU's all-time career saves leader with 261 saves. The Cougs are now 8-4-3, 2-1-1, and continue conference play against LMU on Thursday, October 20th at South Field. Come out to support the Cougs, and cheer them on!!!
