Austin College 0 - 5 UT Dallas

Tough game. We drove down to UTD yesterday after the players got out of class. Training was good this week leading up to the game, and we felt confident in what we could do.

We went down early in the first half when UTD hit a good free kick around our wall. A few minutes later one of their midfielders dribbled through our defense and put one away in the corner. Although we went into the half down by 3 goals, we came out fighting. The resilience of our team is something to be proud of. We came out hard and never gave up. The final score was 5-0, but we walked away knowing what we need to work on. We played a good opponent in UTD, but we know we can play better.

We will take this and put it behind us and move forward to training this week. Our match against ETBU has been scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 23rd. We are 2-2 this year, and in a better spot than we were a year ago today. We thank those of you for coming out to support us, it helps us stay positive and look at the coming potential in the team.
