BYU Takes Down Cal State Fullerton 3-1


BYU took on Cal State Fullerton this weekend for their home opener! The Cougs almost put one away in the first minute of the game off a header from Colette Jepson-Smith, but Cal State came up with a big save from the keeper, Lindsey Maricic!  The Cougs put the first goal of the game away in the 26th minute. Paige Hunt sent a free kick into the box and Rachel Manning was there to head it in.  Ashley Hatch put the second goal away in the 48th minute on a breakaway, assisted by Cloee Colohan, her second goal of the season.  Cal State put a goal away in the 74th minute, and the Cougs answered right back in the 78th minute off a penalty kick by Rachel Manning. 

The Cougs play Nebraska, Saturday, August 31st at 7PM! 

The BYU Women's Soccer Team also had an awesome opportunity to be a part of Amber's Make A Wish experience.  Amber came to the Cougar Kickoff last week to meet the BYU Soccer Team and to hang out.  They played soccer, put Erica Owens in the dunk tank, good work Amber :) and played some soccer. 



It was an amazing experience and the girls really enjoyed getting to know Amber and her family.  They announced her wish, a Caribbean Cruise, at the Cougar Kick-Off!  Thanks for letting us be a part of your wish! 


GO COUGS!!

SEE YOU SATURDAY, AUGUST 31

BYU Hosts HaitI National Team


The BYU Cougars had the opportunity to host and play the Haiti National Team on Friday night.  What an amazing opportunity to be able to meet the girls from the Haiti National Team and learn more about them and their culture.  We were able to have dinner with the team before our game Friday night, and they are such an awesome group of girls, they had us laughing all night long.  I am pretty sure they had some better dance moves than we did . . . 






BYU defeated Haiti in their international friendly 5-0 Friday night.  The Cougs first goal came from Cloee Colohan, assisted by Colette Jepson-Smith. The Cougs second goal was a beautiful header by Rachel Manning, assisted by Colette and Jaiden Thornock.  Ashely Hatch, our incoming freshmen, had her first college goal in the 39th minute and Marissa Nimmer knocked in her first goal of the season. Cloee finished the game with two goals, after she scored a free kick that bounced of both posts and the crossbar.  

Both Haiti and the Cougs played a great game, and the girls are looking forward to their first regular game of the season. The Cougs host Cal State Fullerton, Friday, August 23 @ 7 PM. 

Thank you Haiti for coming to South Field, we enjoyed having you, and look forward to watching you continue your journey to the World Cup!  

GO COUGS!!!
