In a one-sided match well controlled by its offensive attack, Houston defeated Sam Houston State 3-0 in its first match of the season in what was a dominating performance inside the Bearkats’ own third.
An early surge led the Cougars’ to their first goal just 11 minutes into the match, as freshman forward Kennedy Dahlin scored the first goal of her collegiate soccer career.
UH remained in control through the early stages of this match, and it was clear that one goal was too close for comfort.
Senior forward Desiree Bowen offensive firepower was too much for SHSU to handle, racking up two assists and supplying the Cougars’ second goal of the game in the 25th minute.
