Arizona State (4-9-3, 1-5-2), took on an evenly matched Utah team (5-8-3, 0-6-2), on the road in Salt Lake City. It took the full 90 minutes, plus an additional 20 to decide the outcome.
In the 13th minute, the Sun Devils were awarded a penalty kick in which Jemma Purfield converted for her fifth goal of the season to give ASU the early 1-0 lead.
The Utes would respond in the 38th minute after they earned a free kick outside the box. Natalee Wells set up Paola Van der Veen with a pass leading into the box as Van der Veen ripped one passed Nikki Panas, ASU’s goalkeeper, for her seventh goal of the season.
