Vasconcelos, Hatch lead Cougars over Trojans

HENDERSON, Nev.—Seniors Michele Vasconcelos and Ashley Hatch both found the back of the net as the BYU women’s soccer team defeated the USC Trojans 2-0 in exhibition play Saturday.

Hatch scored in the first half in transition off of a pass from Avery Calton to give the Cougars an early 1-0 advantage. Vasconcelos’s unassisted goal in the second half secured the victory for BYU.
