Arizona soccer was competitive but fell short in their first big test of the season, falling 2-1 to No. 4 UCLA in their Pac-12 opener.
The Wildcats made a push in the final five minutes with a corner kick by Jordan Hall, a free kick by Sabrina Enciso that bounced around the box, and a promising run by Jada Talley that ended with a shot wide of the far post.
Arizona drops to 4-1 on the season heading into a homestand against the Washington schools.
“It was a hard fought game,” head coach Tony Amato said.
