Bostyn Burger and Mara Cosgrove anchored the back four during it's shutout of DU. Both are seen here in fall action against UC-Riverside. Also a picture of Allison's Masumiya's ankle before the stitches!
The Cowgirl's made the two hour drive down to the University of Denver to take on the Sun Belt Champion Pioneers in their final road trip of the spring on April 17th. After some heavy rain getting into the Mile High City, it turned out to be a beautiful evening for soccer. The Pokes were down to two field subs after Jerrica DiVincenzo couldn't go with a knee injury. In the 25th minute, Allison Masumiya caught a stud to her right ankle that eventually required 8 stitches (although she did play a few minutes in the 2nd half). Striker Carmen Blume had to be subbed off in the 28th minute with a tight hamstring, leaving the Cowgirl's with 11 players the rest of the match.
Chances were limited for both teams. The Pioneers had their best chance in the 82nd minute, but GK Meagan Burke was able to cut down the angle from 8 yards to the preserve the clean sheet. The Pokes had some heavy legs, but were able to put their best pressure on during the final 15 minutes of the match. The match ended in a scoreless draw. Wyoming has still not yielded a goal this spring heading into the final weekend of action. Alumni game, soccer banquet and two matches all on deck this weekend in Laramie. More on this soon!
Starting lineup vs. Denver:
Burke, Masumiya, Cosgrove, Burger, Jones, Janis, Candelaria, Johnson, Davis, Blume, Coddington
