In the huge home opener victory over UVU, every Ute saw some action on the field. The two first half goals and four second half goals each came from a different person. The exciting goals came from Lauren Dudley, Lauren Hair, Kelly Isleib, Chelsea Forbes, Zoe Van Gorder, and Kellie Woodfield (First career goals for Dudley, Van Gorder, and Woodfield). The game was a hard fought, fast paced one with a lot of physical play.
Coach Rich Manning remarked after the game, "I thought there was good camaradrie in the group and it translated into performance." Lauren Dudley further commented that "scoring that many goals shows that we are solid on offense and the shutout shows we are solid on defense." Coaches and players alike agree that there are still big strides to be made, but as Kelly Islieb confidently concluded, "This was a great first step for us and I think we can only get better.
