tied the school record for shots on goal, but no goals were

going in.

during the game.

Finally, in the second half the Broncos took advantage

of opportunity. Freshman Monica Almaraz was brought

down by the Vikings and ended in a penalty shot given to

and scored by Boise State.

The kicker of the penalty shot was number 16

sophomore Brittany Zoellner. She stepped up and chipped

one in for the team giving BSU its victory at 1-0. Zoellner

scored her eighth goal and tied the Bronco record for

goals in a season with little over half the season to go.

Zoellner and Dayle McNabb were leading the Broncos

with eight shots apiece; trailing was Abbe Roche with five

and Kaziah Hill with four. Saturday’s victory put Boise

State at 2-3-1 overall and gave them a two game winning

streak.
