LAST WEEK: Utah came off its extended road trip boasting two shutout wins from Washington State (3-0) and Montana (1-0). In the Washington State match, both teams marked an undefeated season record. The Utes offensive performance capitalized on Washington State's defense as the Cougars picked up their first loss of the season. Junior forward Missy Dennis lead the way with two goals. The Utes' bout with the Grizzlies ended in double overtime after senior forward Katie Tate scored the winning goal at the 106:02 mark off an assist from senior Shauna Gurr-Bingham. Tate ended the game with four shot-on-goal attempts. The Utes outshot Montana by a margin of 25-2.
QUOTING COACH MANNING: "Saint Mary's has a hard-working, aggressive team with tremendous competitive desire," states Manning. "They have played a very tough schedule so far this year and will be ready for us this Sunday. They were one of the best teams in the country last year. Many of those players are back and have improved through the experience gained from last season's success. They will be motivated to come here and get a win as they head into the West Coast Conference season."
NEXT WEEK: The Utes will endure two tough upcoming bouts with instate foes Utah State and Weber State. The Utah State game will be played on Oct. 2 at 4:00 p.m. on Ute Field and the Weber State match will be held on Oct. 5 at 1:00 p.m. in Ogden, Utah.
