On Sunday, the University of Colorado soccer team had a must-win game on its hands against the No. 17 Arizona State Sun Devils. With a scoreless double overtime draw against Arizona on Friday, and the regular season rapidly coming to a close, the Buffs now found themselves with their backs against the wall. One way or another, CU had to find a way to beat the Sun Devils. Failure to do so would likely end any hopes at CU making the NCAA tournament.
If the Buffs felt any pressure it didn’t show. CU established a strong tone early and never looked back.
