The Cougs recently returned from Penn State, where they had to chance to play 2 great teams. The were matched up against UConn, then West Virginia. Both games were a battle, and the Cougs fought to the end. Carlee Payne, a freshmen from Pleasanton, California, picked up both game winning goals. The first, against UConn was in the final 3 minutes of regulation, and she put away a header off a corner by Lauren Anderson. She then picked up her second goal of the season, and her second game winning goal of her career in the final minutes of the first overtime against West Virginia. The Cougs won the ball on their defensive end, and Kelsea Kakadelas had a great pass out, and Carlee just ran the entire field, beat their defense, and put it away to knock off a ranked team. The girls looked awesome, and they played great! Keep it up Cougs!
They also had a chance to do a fireside while they where in State College, and all the speakers did a great job. Even our awesome bus driver came and watched the fireside and said it was nice to see some good in the world. Good work girls!
