The first meeting between the two teams was a thriller Thursday, as BYU fought from behind to score two second-half goals, but fell in overtime 3-2 at Myers Stadium.
BYU sophomore Annie Zwahlen got off the first shot just three minutes into the game for the Cougars, but Texas goalie Alex Gagarin was there to make the stop. With 21 minutes left in the first half, Texas scored on a shot that hit off the crossbar and into the goal by Kelly McDonald, assisted by Kelsey Carpenter. The lead was extended 2-0 by Texas with less than five minutes remaining before half, on a shot into the left corner of the box by Ashley Foster, assisted by Kelly Wilson. The Cougars were outshot by the Longhorns 9-5 going into halftime.
Rallying in the second half, BYU gained some momentum with a goal by sophomore defender Claire Thomas, her second of the season, off a corner kick by sophomore Bobbi Tillotson, her fifth assist on the season. The score was tied 2-2 less than three minutes before the end of regulation, on a shot by junior Jaime Rendich from 40 yards out, assisted by Tillotson. Rendich and Tillotson lead the team with six goals and six assists, respectively. The Cougars outshot the Longhorns 11-7 in the second half and held on to take the game to overtime.
Just four minutes into overtime, Texas won the game on a goal by Amy Burlingham off a scramble in the box. The loss snapped BYU's streak of three consecutive shutouts. BYU goalie Erika Woodbury finished with four saves off 19 Longhorn shots.
Falling to 5-8-3, BYU heads to the Rockies to continue the second of five games on the road, the next four against Mountain West Conference teams. After opening with a tie against San Diego State and a victory over UNLV. Conference play resumes Saturday in Colorado Springs, Colo., against Air Force at 7 p.m..
