Bronco soccer team becomes road-weary
Archive
“We were just tired from being on the road, sleeping in hotels and traveling on buses; the players were run down and sick,” said head coach Steve Lucas.
Within the first 35 minutes of play the Utes were up 2-0. Broncos then tried to take back momentum with a goal, but it wasn’t enough. That was the only score of the game for the Broncos. Utah went on to score two more goals during the game and finalize their win with a score of 4-1.
“We played well at times, but we just weren’t there,” said Lucas. “We gave it away.”
The game, however, was not all they lost on Wednesday. They also lost a player who is out for a few weeks recovering from a concussion.
Junior Brook Smith took what coaches think was a collision to the head. She was flown home with Lucas and taken to the hospital. She is okay, but she will be out of play for two weeks, which are doctors’ orders.
This week the Broncos will focus on their up-coming games against UC-Irvine and Cal State Fullerton, both on the road.
