Box Score
Boise, Idaho – UW soccer was held scoreless at Boise
State on Friday night, as the Broncos claimed the 1-0 win at the Boas Soccer
and Tennis Complex in Boise.
Wyoming (4-4-1)
outshot the Broncos 16-to-11, but could not find a way to put one in the back
of the net. Junior forward Shaina Ashouri led the Cowgirls with five shots.
Despite the shooting advantage, UW was held to a season-low two shots on goal.
Boise State (2-7-1)
netted the game-winner in the 21st minute when Kayla Tucker played a long ball
up to Raimee Sherle, who poked it past junior goalkeeper Georgia Rowntree. The
goal was Sherle's second of the year, and ended an eight-match winless streak
for the home squad.
"Boise State came out
and played extremely physical, and it took our team awhile to step up and match
that physicality," said head coach Pete Cuadrado. "Once we did, I thought we
had a ton of great chances but unfortunately Boise State put one away. I
thought we responded really well, but we have to be able to come out right away
and match the intensity."
Friday's game marked
the first time this season that Boise State shut out its opponent. Shaina
Ashouri led the Cowgirls in shots for the fifth-consecutive contest. Sophomore
defender Alyssa Murray played a complete 90 minutes for the first time this
season, along with Rowntree and junior defender Alisha Bass. Wyoming is now
7-3-1 all-time against the Broncos.
