A late goal by Madie Siddoway Gates lifted the BYU women's soccer team to a 3-2 win over Utah on Friday night at Ute Field, giving the Cougars the first win in the 2018-19 Deseret First Duel.

"It's always crazy like this against Utah and I'm proud of the girls," BYU head coach Jennifer Rockwood said. "I think we thought we might have had it, but they came back and then [Gates] came through when we needed her to."

A scoreless first half was highlighted by 11 combined shots between the two teams.
