BYUH vs SPU

Here's a behind the scenes look at our game vs SPU on Wednesday. Although we didn't get the win, everyone battled hard the entire 110 minutes. We definitely have something to be proud of.




Here's the write up from our sports media department.


BYUH Ties #17 Seattle Pacific
Waipio, HI—The Brigham Young University Hawaii women’s soccer battled 17th-ranked Seattle Pacific through two overtimes tonight without either team finding the net in a 0-0 non-conference match at the Waipio Soccer Stadium.  The Seasiders and Falcons both had scoring opportunities during the course of the game but neither could generate a score over 110 minutes of play.

Seattle Pacific, picked as the favorite in the Great Northwest Conference this season, out-shot the Seasiders by a 29-11 margin but BYU–Hawaii freshman goalie Megan McCain saved 11 shots in turning in her second shutout of the season in as many matches for the 1-0-1 Seasiders.  Maddie Dickinson made six saves for Seattle Pacific in turning in her third straight shutout for the 2-0-1 Falcons.

BYU–Hawaii’s defense was tested severely by the Falcons, who got off 12 shots in both the first and second halves and five more in the two overtime periods, but refused to succumb to the pressure.  Kami Strait and Rachel Johnson led the defense in repeatedly turning away the Seattle Pacific attack.

BYU–Hawaii’s next game will be on September 18th against Hawaii Pacific in Kaneohe.  Game time is set for the Pacific West Conference contest at 3:00 pm.
