Led by senior midfielder Ashley Merrill’s two-goal game, Baylor soccer capped off the season strong with a 3-2 win over new Big 12 competitor Houston Monday night at the Carl Lewis International Complex in Houston. The Bears clinched a spot in the 2023 Sprouts Farmers Market Big 12 Soccer Championship with the victory.
Merrill’s two goals put her season total at 11, which marks the most from an individual player in a single season since Dana Larsen in 2012. Baylor’s nine wins on the year is also the most since 2018.
