Neither the University of Colorado nor the Washington State women’s soccer team was able to score a goal during regulation on Saturday at Prentup Field. The scoring drought came to an end in overtime with a Cougar goal in the 98th minute courtesy of Makamae Gomera-Stevens who beat two CU defenders and squeezed a shot around sophomore goalkeeper Dani Hansen.
The loss moved the Buffs down to 6-4-1 (2-3-1 Pac-12) while the Cougars, fresh off a lengthy COVID-19 pause, improved to 5-1-1 (1-0-1 Pac-12).
As the Buffs made their way onto Prentup Field to face the Cougars, CU players and coaches wore something different than normal.
