After a long night at Betty Lou Mays Field, Baylor soccer began its season with a 1-1 draw against the University of Minnesota. First kick was delayed until 8:47 p.m., almost two hours after the initial start time, due to the weather.
The explosive offense that head coach Michelle Lenard’s team displayed in their two exhibition matches lacked, but as the game progressed, momentum built, leading to dangerous offensive opportunities.
“I think there’s a lot of nerves this game — just the first real game of the season, a lot of new players and just overall a good Minnesota team,” fifth-year senior midfielder Maddie Algya said.
