Late rally not enough for Red Raiders to overcome Michigan in the NCAA Tournament

Texas Tech fell to Michigan last night in Chapel Hill, NC by a final score of 3-2. Both teams got after it early and often, with the first goal going to the Wolverines in the eighth minute. That was the earliest Tech conceded a goal all season, but the Red Raiders rallied back and equalized from a finishing header by Jayne Lydiatt with Kirsten Davis on the assist. After the twenty-second minute goal things stagnated until the second half, but Michigan continued to increase the amount of pressure on Tech as the half came around.

In the second half both teams played tug-o-war with possession in each other’s final third, but Michigan capitalized when it mattered most.
