Women's soccer: Season begins vs. No. 1 Florida State

It’s simply a coincidence that Heather Dyche will face her alma mater in her first regular-season coaching outing for the UNM women’s soccer team.

The game was also scheduled prior to Florida State’s 2014 national championship victory and its No. 1 preseason ranking.

With that in mind, Dyche said she and the Lobos expect a tough game Friday night when the Lobos host the top-ranked Seminoles in the 2015 Lobo Invitational at the UNM Soccer Complex. The game begins at 7:30 p.m. following the 5 p.m. match between USC and Texas Tech.

It’s a no-lose situation for the Lobos, Dyche said, considering how talented this Florida State squad is.
