The East Carolina University Pirates lost to the University of Houston Cougars 3-2 in double overtime last Thursday for their third conference game this season.
Cougar goalie Rachel Estopare mistakenly left the net for Pirate junior forward Jenna Dages to head the ball into the open goal scoring the first point of the game, 19 seconds in. The Pirates held off the Cougars the entire first half and did not allow them any goals. ECU was more aggressive on the field taking seven shots at goal while Houston only took three. ECU also had four corner kicks and two less fouls than Houston, playing a good, fair game.
