Tyler, TX- The University of Mary Hardin-Baylor women's soccer team gave up a pair of goals in the first five minutes of the match before settling down, but the Lady Cru could not overcome the quick early deficit in a 2-0 loss to U.T.-Tyler Thursday night in Tyler. The loss drops the UMHB women to 4-6 overall and 4-2 in American Southwest Conference play on the season. U.T.-Tyler improves to 6-3-2 overall and 4-1-2 in the ASC with the victory.

The Patriots grabbed a 1-0 lead when Taylor Estes scored off an assist from Jorden Reed just 1:31 into the match. Reed added an unassisted goal 3:23 later to make it 2-0 U.T.-Tyler. Both goalkeepers stepped up from there to keep it that way. Sam Fraser posted five saves to record the shutout for U.T.-Tyler. Ally Sargeant finished with four saves for the Lady Cru. UMHB was out shot 15-8 in the match, but put five of those eight shots on goal.
