LAST TIME OUT
UT Tyler women's soccer battled the #3 DBU on the road, as the two teams fought for all 90 minutes. The Patriots kept up with their nationally ranked rival the entire match, despite an early goal from DBU. The Patriots' best attacking threat came from
Ella Anderson, who led all UT Tyler players with three shots, two of which were on goal. It was the first loss in Lone Star Conference Play for the Patriots but it wouldn't take long for them to get back in the win column. UT Tyler was back home as Citizens 1st Bank-Perkins Soccer Complex hosting their Senior Day.
Robbi Curry,
Addie Russu,
Hadley Carpenter, and
Nicoline Veasey were honored pregame for their contributions to the Women's Soccer program. After being kept out of the net earlier in the week, UT Tyler didn't waste any time getting on the scoreboard, taking the lead in just the 2nd minute of the contest.
Ava Harris would take advantage of a great cross from
Celine Diaz, as the sophomore found the back of the net, putting the Patriots up 1-0. Later in the first half,
Samantha White scored her first goal of the year off a header after a UT Tyler corner kick bounced around in the box and landed right in front of the Patriot defender.
Lily Moreno would wrap up the scoring with an impressive goal in the top right corner after being substituted into the game 15 minutes into the second half.
