August 18, 2023 — The University of Wyoming soccer team opened its 2023 season yesterday in Laramie with a 1-1 tie with Colorado School of Mines.

Things started well for UW as Jamie Tatum fed Maddi Chance, leading to the game’s first goal in the 21st minute. Colorado School of Mines would respond with the tying goal before the end of the first half. Both teams went scoreless in the second half.

“It was a good test for us,” head coach Colleen Corbin said. “(Mines) posed some problems we haven’t faced yet because it’s early. They were really organized defensively, and we have to be better about rotating and being dynamic and breaking that down. It’s positive overall, though, and definitely, an opportunity for us to grow.” 

UW will host Weber State this Sunday afternoon.
