College Notebook 10.16.18

Here's a recap of the weekend action, including Monday's Carroll at Providence doubleheader that was delayed from Saturday due to... SNOW. Yup, it is officially here.

## Women's Scores & Notes ## 

Pac-12, Mountain West & West Coast Conferences

Friday MW - Boise State 1-0 Air Force :: The Broncos kept their unbeaten Mountain West record intact with the road win on a 55th minute goal from who other than Raimee Sherle (Meridian, ID) on a ball from Kristina Serres. It was another record setter as it made her the career points leader for the program and put her in a tie for the single-season MW record which she also finished tied with a year ago. She has four games left to break it.



Saturday PAC-12 - USC 3-2 Washington State :: The second-ranked Trojans were in front at the break courtesy of a penalty and pushed the lead to two following a turnover in the 54th. Maddy Haro converted from the spot as well to get back within one in the 55th, but USC restored the two goal lead eight minutes later. A Haro free kick spilled by the keeper in the 72nd was put away by Molly Myers, but that was all the Cougs could get in the loss.


Sunday WCC - Saint Mary's 1-4 Santa Clara :: Kelsey Turnbow (Spokane, WA) opened the scoring up for the Broncos just two minutes into the match. Then Kelcie Hedge (Post Falls, ID) went on a roll. She set up the second goal in the ninth minute and then scored twice in the second half to push the lead to four. The first was a volley off a free kick in the 54th and the other off a cross from Maria Sanchez (American Falls, ID) in the 73rd.


Sunday MW - Boise State 1-0 Colorado College :: The contest may have just been decided by one goal, but it kept the Broncos unbeaten and featured a number of records. First, the 82nd minutes strike from Raimee Sherle (Meridian, ID) set the new single-season goals record at 19. The final whistle commemorated the second with Tara Fisher earning her ninth shutout of the season, a program record for a single season. Ironically she only needed to make one save to do so as neither side was particularly accurate on the with their 18 combined shots as Sherle's late winner was the only one on target at the other end.



Sunday PAC-12 - Oregon State 0-2 Utah :: Makayla Christensen (Meridian, ID) set up the opening goal in the seventh minute.

Standings:  PAC-12   MW   WCC

The Bengals got on the board to close it to two before the break with a Delaney Johnston (Boise, ID) strike in the 32nd, but the Eags were not done. Emma Vanderhyden scored off a corner five minutes into the second half and then Raniere found Keister for the fifth in the 64th. Saige Lyons tallied four minutes later and Megan Drake (Coeur d'Alene, ID) scored the final two in the 71st and 75th.
