Cougars Cruise Into The NCAA Second Round

In Case You Missed It
PULLMAN, Wash. – For the second-straight season the Washington State soccer team (13-5-1) are moving on in the NCAA Tournament as the Cougars dominated Montana (7-9-6), 5-1, in the opening round of play Friday night at Lower Soccer Field. From the opening whistle to the final horn, the Cougars were in complete control of the game, peppering the Griz defense with shots until finally breaking through in the 36' on a tap in goal by sophomore Briana Alger. Alger was the beneficiary of a stellar individual effort from freshman who beat her defender down the baseline and crossed a ball to Alger who then nutmegged her defender for the goal.
