Utah State Women’s Soccer proved that they can hold their own at home after ending the day with a 1-0 victory against No. 1 BYU, handing the Cougars their first loss of the season and making it the highest-ranked win in Aggie history. Walking into tonight’s contest showing no signs of last week’s loss vs. Arizona (3-1-3), the Aggies gave it all they had in front of a record-setting 2,013 fans against the No. 1 ranked team -finishing the afternoon with 11 total shots and a dominant defensive effort throughout the game.
It was Aggies’ midfielder Summer Diamond who got the crowd pumped right in the 50th minute of the game as she slipped the only goal of the afternoon by the Cougars’ goalkeeper with a left-footed shot, marking the freshman’s third goal of the season.
GOALLLLLLLL!!!
