Cougar Women Capture 4-2 Soccer Win Over Montana
Missoula, MT -- BYU's women's soccer team rebounded from a loss to Washington earlier this week, with a 4-2 victory over Montana, Thursday.
Senior Sara Reading put the Cougars on the scoreboard 46 seconds into the game with a direct free kick due to a Montana foul. Jeni Willardson came off the bench to extend the BYU lead to 2-0 at the 27-minute mark after receiving a feed from teammate Michelle Jensen Peterson who had beaten the defender.
"We moved the ball very well today and are starting to come together as a team with our new lineup," said Cougar coach Jennifer Rockwood. "Michelle Jensen had an outstanding game up front, she was very dangerous and very strong."
Two quick goals from Jensen and Kim Lowe sealed the BYU victory midway through the second half. Montana did score a goal in each half after only five shots on goal for the entire game.
The Cougars improve their season record to 2-1 while the Grizzlies suffered their first loss of the year. BYU returns to Provo to host Washington State on Monday, September 4 and Creighton on Thurs., September 7. The Labor Day game is at 1 p.m., at South Field.
