TWITTER: Live Twitter updates for each Texas soccer match can be accessed at the team s official account TEXAS LONGHORN QUICK KICKS... Texas, a No. 4 national seed, is continuing the program s 12th all-time appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Sunday s contest against No. 3 Duke in Durham, N.C., marks just the fourth time in program history that the Longhorns have advanced to the NCAA Third Round and the first time since 2007 when the Longhorns knocked off No. 2 Texas A&M, 3-2, to face Florida State in the Sweet 16. UT has never advanced past the NCAA Third Round, having suffered losses to nationally-ranked Portland in 2004 & 2006 (both 2-0) and to Florida State (4-0) in The Longhorns enter Sunday s match-up with a all-time record against Duke and a mark against the Blue Devils in Durham, N.C. Texas lost in those two previous road meetings, 3-0 (Oct. 7, 1995) and 3-2 (Aug. 31, 2003). UT s lone victory in the series came in Austin on Sept. 1, 2002, 2-1. The Longhorns head into Sunday s match with a 1-8 mark all-time against No. 3-ranked teams with the lone victory against a No. 3-rated squad coming against No. 3 Penn State back on Sept. 1, 2006, in Austin, 2-1. UT is in program history against the top five, but is 1-0 this season after knocking off No. 5 West Virginia at home on Sept. 24, 1-0. Texas sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen is making the most of her first trip to the NCAA Tournament, leading the Longhorns with three goals over her first two career NCAA postseason matches. Even more stunning about the Garland, Texas, product s performance over her the two matches is that she is ALREADY TIED for the most NCAA career goals (three with Kelsey Carpenter, ) and second in NCAA career points (six, behind Kelsey Carpenter s eight from ) in Texas program history! The Burnt Orange & White seem perfectly comfortable taking penalty kicks in 2017 as the Longhorns are now 7-for-8 from the spot this season. Junior midfielder Katie Glenn has made two (one vs. Northeastern back on Sept. 10 and one in the PK shootout vs. Clemson) while sophomore defender Atu Mshana, freshman forward Haley Berg, junior defender Chelsea Surpris, sophomore defender Emma Jett and junior defender Paige Hooper all joined Glenn is nailing PK s to advance past Clemson in the NCAA Second Round shootout. Texas is an incredibly young team with just two seniors (that pair has combined to play in two matches in 2017) and a total of 18 freshmen or sophomores on the roster. Those freshmen and sophomores have combined for 20 of Texas 29 total goals, 22 of 30 total assists and all 14 wins & 11 shutouts in goal (sophomore Quick Kicks Continued on Page STAT COMPARISONS #3 Duke Category #18 Texas Record Goals Assists Points Shots Shot Pct Shots on Goal Shots on Goal Pct Corner Kicks Shots Per Game Penalty Kicks Saves 73

4 2017 TEXAS SOCCER QUICK KICKS (continued from page 1) goalkeeper Nicole Curry). Sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen was rewarded for posting just the second two-goal effort in a NCAA match in Texas history by being tabbed to the Top Drawer Soccer National Team of the Week (Nov. 14) for the second time this season. The Garland, Texas, native now leads the Longhorns with 10 goals and tops the Big 12 Conference with six match-winning goals in Fans and opponents better watch out for Texas dynamic duo of sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen and freshman midfielder Haley Berg. The duo has combined to score 16 of Texas 29 goals, registered nine of 30 total assists and managed 41 of the Longhorns 88 total points (47%) this season. Overtime has become the norm over the latter half of the season as Texas has ventured to at least one extra session during 10 of its last 14 overall matches dating back to Sept. 10. In all, Longhorns players have been on the pitch for 114:20 of overtime action this season. That s more than an entire additional regulation match. Texas current team goals-against-average of 0.61 rates just ahead of the program record of 0.64 established back during 2008 when that Longhorns squad allowed just 14 total goals all season (21 matches) with a school record 11 shutouts. UT has allowed 13 goals and tied the school record with 11 shutouts over 20 matches during Texas sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry is currently second in the Big 12 Conference in shutouts with 11 over her first 20 career matches played and rates second in the league in goals-against-average at 0.61, just 0.05 behind the leader. Curry has also leapt up the Texas single-season top 10 for clean sheets, shattering the old school record for single-season shutouts (nine) previously held by Longhorns Abby Smith (2014) and Dianna Pfenninger (2008). After struggling in close matches during the 2016 season (just 2-8 overall in one-goal contests and in OT), Texas has had remarkable success in such match-ups in So far through 20 contests, the Longhorns are a sparkling 11-3 in one-goal decisions with victories over Rice, Little Rock, North Texas, Sacramento State, Northeastern, UTRGV, Iowa State, No. 5 West Virginia, Texas Tech, Kansas State and Baylor. Texas offense has managed to register more shots on goal than its opponent in 14 OF 20 MATCHES so far in UT leads in the category, , for an average margin of shots on goal-per-match. Texas won 25% (7-of-28) of the Big 12 weekly awards handed out over the 10 weeks of the 2017 soccer season. UT won four consecutive Offensive Player of the Week awards (Sept. 12-Oct. 3) for the first time in program history, while the seven total honors were the most in a single season in program history. Sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen owned three Offensive Player of the Week accolades and freshman midfielder Haley Berg won two Freshman of the Week honors, while junior midfielder Katie Glenn (Offensive) and sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry (Defensive POW) earned one each. Texas 3-2 (OT) win over Northeastern (Sept. 10) was noteworthy in that it marked the first time the Longhorns had allowed at least two goals in a match and won since beating Dayton back on Aug. 17, 2012, 3-2 (OT). That covered a stretch of 105 total matches between the occurrences, and UT had been when allowing two or more goals over that span. With a 3-2 (2OT) victory over Texas Tech (Sept. 29), Texas turned the trick twice in just five matches in 2017! For the Longhorns, scoring the match s first goal seems to be a key to victory in 2017 as the Longhorns are when putting the initial score on the board and when leading at the halftime break. Texas defense is particularly stingy, having allowed more than two goals in a single match ONLY TWICE OVER THE LONGHORNS LAST 107 MATCHES (both occurrences happened at TCU on Oct. 17, 2014 & Oct. 28, 2016) and only once over the last 62 matches. In fact, an opponent has scored more than two goals in a contest only five times since head coach Angela Kelly took over the program (three times during her first season on the Forty Acres in 2012). With her goal just 25 seconds into the season-opening, 2-1 victory over Rice (Aug. 18), freshman midfielder Haley Berg became the first Longhorns player to score in her first collegiate match since now senior forward Olivia Brook knocked home a goal during the 44th minute of her debut in a 2-2 (2OT) tie versus Arizona State back on Aug. 22, UNITED SOCCER COACHES POLL Week 12 - Nov. 7, 2017 RK TEAM RECORD PTS 1 Stanford (28) North Carolina (2) Duke (1) UCLA South Carolina Texas A&M West Virginia UCF USC Penn State Pepperdine Virginia Princeton Ohio State Georgetown Florida Oklahoma State TEXAS California Tennessee N.C.

5 2017 TEXAS SOCCER GAME NOTES ALL-TIME IN THE BIG DANCE! Texas is continuing its 12th all-time appearance ( overall record/.429) in the NCAA Field of 64. Sunday s contest against No. 3 Duke in Durham, N.C., marks just the fourth time in program history that the Longhorns have advanced to the NCAA Third Round and the first time since 2007 when the Longhorns knocked off No. 2 Texas A&M, 3-2, to face Florida State in the Sweet 16. UT has never advanced past the NCAA Third Round, having suffered losses to nationally-ranked Portland in 2004 & 2006 (both 2-0) and to Florida State (4-0) in 2007.The Longhorns are making their second appearance in the NCAA Tournament and own a tourney mark under the guidance of head coach Angela Kelly. HINTZEN SHINES IN NCAAS Texas sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen is making the most of her first trip to the NCAA Tournament, leading the Longhorns with three goals over her first two career NCAA postseason matches. Even more stunning about the Garland, Texas, product s performance over her the two matches is that she is ALREADY TIED for the most NCAA career goals (three with Kelsey Carpenter, ) and second in NCAA career points (six, behind Kelsey Carpenter s eight from ) in Texas program history! IF TEXAS CAN GET BY NO. 3 DUKE... With NCAA Second Round upsets on Friday of defending national champion USC (by Baylor) and Texas A&M (by Notre Dame), the opportunity now exists that if the Longhorns advance past No. 3 Duke on Sunday that the Burnt Orange & White would return to Austin to HOST THE ELITE EIGHT MATCH WITH THE CHANCE AT THE NCAA COLLEGE CUP ON THE LINE. Obviously, Texas faces a stern task against the powerful Blue Devils, but having the potential to host the NCAA Elite Eight round at Mike A. Myers Stadium is staggering for a UT team once picked to finish EIGHTH in the Big 12 Preseason Coaches Poll! MOVING UP THE VICTORY COLUMN The Longhorns have put together one of the top seasons for wins in program history, currently owning a overall record. In fact, the Burnt Orange & White have tied the 2001 Texas squad for the fifth-most wins in a single season at UT and could move into a tie for third with a Sunday NCAA win over No. 3 Duke. The top-five single-season win totals are listed below: Season Win Total Wins ( final record) Wins ( final record) Wins ( final record) Wins ( final record) Wins (currently ) Wins ( final record) AGAINST 2017 NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAMS The Longhorns enter play on Sunday with a overall record this season against teams that made the NCAA Field of 64 (Rice, North Texas - twice, Colorado, West Virginia, TCU, Baylor - twice, Oklahoma State and Clemson). During those match-ups Texas has managed to out-score its 10 opponents by a combined count of 14-6, but the total shots ( ), shots-per-match ( ) and shots on goal (53-49) are super close with two categories in the opposition s favor. In all, six of the matches against NCAA teams have been settled by just one goal while five of the last six have required at least one overtime. WE RE USED TO BEING IN FRONT It s almost hard to believe but Texas soccer has trailed for only 70:16 of 1914:20 of total match time over 20 contests in The only times the Longhorns have been behind on the scoreboard this season are for 26:59 against Little Rock (UT eventually rallied back to win 2-1), for 36:56 against Northeastern (UT eventually rallied back to win 3-2 in OT), for the last 6:19 at Kansas (UT lost 2-1) and the final second of both the 1-0 (OT) loss to No. 22 Oklahoma State and the 2-1 (OT) defeat against Baylor in the Big 12 Championship quarterfinal. JUST CALL HER CLUTCH CYERA Texas sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen continues to score massive goals for the Longhorns in 2017 with a Big 12-leading six matchwinning scores over the first 20 contests. Four of those winning goals have come in the 82nd minute of a match or later to beat North Texas, UTRGV (OT), No. 5 West Virginia and Texas Tech (2OT). Hintzen has MOVED INTO A TIE FOR SECOND IN SINGLE- SEASON MATCH-WINNING GOALS AT TEXAS WITH SIX alongside former Longhorns player Kelly Wilson (2004). The school record for one campaign is eight match-winners by Kelsey Carpenter back in TEXAS DYNAMIC DUO Texas fans and opponents better keep an eye on the duo of sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen and freshman forward Haley Berg. Former club teammates from with FC Dallas, Hintzen and Berg have already demonstrated a familiarity with each other on the pitch as Hintzen assisted on each of Berg s first two collegiate goals against Rice and Little Rock. The latter score against the Trojans provided a perfect example as the duo worked a perfect give-and-go play inside the 18 with Berg finishing in clear space from nine yards out. The pair have combined to score 16 of Texas 29 goals, registered nine of 30 total assists and managed 41 of the Longhorns 88 total points (47%) this season. OVERTIME SUCCESS IN 2017 Texas has managed impressive success this season when sent to an extra session. At 5-2-3, the Longhorns five wins tie the 2004 Longhorns for the most W s in extra time in program history, while its 10 total OT matches rank as the most all-time in a single campaign in Texas history. A complete list of UT s most single-season overtime matches and wins is below: Most UT Single-Season Overtime Matches Most UT Single-Season Overtime Wins Ten Five Eight Five Seven Three 2012, 2010, 2008, 2006, Six Three VERSUS RANKED OPPONENTS UT owns a record all-time against ranked opponents. Under Kelly s guidance, the Horns are just in such contests, but have now defeated at least one rated foe in five of her six seasons on the Forty Acres, having knocked off No. 25 Colorado and No. 5 West Virginia this year. The 2017 team (2-1-0 against rated teams) has equaled the 2015 squad in beating two ranked foes in a single season, something that hadn t been done prior to that since A FLAIR FOR THE DRAMATIC The Longhorns, and particularly sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen, have often opted for late dramatics as Texas has now scored seven match-winning goals in the 82nd-minute or later over its last 17 matches. The instances are listed below: Time of Goal Opponent Scorer Match Result 96:29 at Baylor Katie Glenn W, 1-0 (OT) 92:30 at Kansas State Haley Berg W, 1-0 (OT) 101:32 Texas Tech Cyera Hintzen W, 3-2 (2OT) 87:40 #5 West Virginia Cyera Hintzen W, :13 UTRGV Cyera Hintzen W, 1-0 (OT) 98:37 Northeastern Cydney Billups W, 3-2 (OT) 81:48 at North Texas Cyera Hintzen W, 1-0 ATU S ALWAYS IN THERE Texas sophomore defender Atu Mshana is quite literally always on the pitch as part of the Longhorns defensive backline.

Rookie midfielder Haley Berg got things started with a goal just 25 seconds into the season opener against Rice, while both junior midfielder transfer Amber Stearns and freshman midfielder/forward Emily Strouphauer got their first career Texas goals to power the Horns past Western Kentucky, 2-0. Berg was at it again against Little Rock, picking up her first match-winner on a 53rd minute goal as UT prevailed, 2-1. Strouphauer picked up her second and redshirt freshman forward Cydney Billups tallied her first as the Horns knocked off Northeastern, 3-2 (OT).

Texas owns just an mark in true road matches under head coach Angela Kelly but has seen a recent run of success improve on that total. UT is in its last 30 road contests and in 2017 after 1-0 wins at North Texas (Aug. 27) and Sacramento State (Sept. 3), a 0-0 (2OT) tie at Oklahoma (Oct. 1), a 2-1 loss at Kansas (Oct. 13) and 1-0 (OT) wins at Kansas State (Oct. 15) and Baylor (Oct. 20). SCORING FIRST SETS THE RIGHT TONE In five-plus seasons under coach Angela Kelly, the Longhorns have posted a mark when scoring the initial goal of the contest. UT went in 2013, in 2014, in 2015, in 2016 and is already this year when registering the match s initial tally. KEEP THE CROOKED NUMBERS OFF THE SCOREBOARD Under the guidance of head coach Angela Kelly, Texas boasts a lot of success when the defense keeps the crooked numbers off the opponent s side of the scoreboard. Since the beginning of the 2012 campaign, the Longhorns have limited the opposition to a single goal or less in 87 of 119 possible matches. In those instances, Texas owns a overall record and has gone since beginning the 2013 season. HOLDING OPPONENTS UNDER 10 SHOTS IS KEY During head coach Angela Kelly s five-plus seasons in charge of the Longhorns program, defense has played a big role in the squad s success. Texas owns a mark when holding opponents UNDER 10 shots in a match. UT was 6-3 in 2012, in 2013, in 2014, in 2015, 5-0 in 2016 and is this season when holding opponents to less than 10 shots. THERE S NO PLACE LIKE HOME Dorothy once said there s no place like home. The Texas soccer squad takes that line from The Wizard of Oz to heart as in five-plus seasons under coach Angela Kelly, the Longhorns have posted a (.669) record in the friendly confines of Myers Stadium and are (.704) over the last 54 home matches. Texas owns an all-time home record of (.731) in now the 19th year (1999-present) at Mike A. Myers Stadium and Soccer Field. In the 20+-year history of Texas Soccer, the Horns have registered an overall record of (.717) in all home games. NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED Sophomore defender Atu Mshana and sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry picked up major honors for their efforts during Big 12 wins over Iowa State (Sept. 22) and No. 5 West Virginia (Sept. 24). Mshana received a nod as the Top Drawer Soccer National Player of the Week (Sept. 26) and an inclusion on the TDS National Team of the Week, while Curry was selected as the United Soccer Coaches National Player of the Week (Sept. 26). The duo worked together in the back to help post consecutive shutouts, including only the second of the nationally-ranked Mountaineers over their last 28 matches. GET OUT THE BROOMS! Following consecutive Big 12 victories over Iowa State and No. 5 West Virginia, Texas soccer managed a clean sweep of the Big 12 Conference weekly awards as sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen, sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry and freshman midfielder Haley Berg were chosen as the league s Offensive, Defensive and Freshman of the Week for Sept. 26, respectively. The sweep was only the fifth by any team (counting no co-player honors) in Big 12 history, but the second in Texas program history. The other occurrence for the Longhorns came back on Oct. 28, 2008, as UT defender Kasey Moore (Co-Offensive), goalkeeper Dianna Pfenninger (Defensive) and midfielder Lucy Keith (Co-Freshman) earned the league honors. SETTING AN EARLY TONE! Under the guidance of head coach Angela Kelly, since the start of the 2012 campaign, the Longhorns have scored a goal during the first 10 minutes of a match on 17 different occasions. In those contests, Texas holds a stellar 13-4 record, proving how important it often can be to get an early tone-setting score. The list of those occurrences since the beginning of 2012 is below: Opponent/Season Goal Scorer Time of Goal Final Result New Mexico/2012 Sharis Lachappelle 9:35 New Mexico won 2-1 Fresno State/2012 Hannah Higgins 2:55 Texas won 3-0 Georgia/2013 Brooke Gilbert 4:52 Texas won 2-0 TCU/2013 Whitney Jaynes 4:00 Texas won 2-0 Stephen F.

Sophomore Nicole Curry s clutch save on a point-blank shot by No. 5 West Virginia forward Michaela Abam at 88:16 to preserve Texas 1-0 lead over the Mountaineers came in at No. 8 on ESPNW s Top 10 Plays of the Week for Sept. 27. With Texas shockingly in front on Cyera Hintzen s late goal at 87:40, Curry s stop just 36 seconds later prevented an immediate equalizer on the way to Texas first win over a top five team since NOTING THE W OVER WEST VIRGINIA Texas 1-0 win over No. 5 West Virginia on Sept. 24 was notable for many reasons including: Marked just the second loss for the Mountaineers in Big 12 play in history (had entered in the Big 12) Broke WVU s 24-match Big 12 unbeaten streak (had entered at over the last 24 Big 12 matches) Represented the first Big 12 road loss for WVU in the last 15 league road matches (entered in last 14) Was Texas first win over a top-five opponent since beating No. 5 Oklahoma State on Oct. 22, 2010, 1-0 Went down as Texas first win over West Virginia in Big 12 play and the first win over WVU since 2004 SUPER-HIGH RPI! After Texas was rewarded for its impressive early-season work (Sept. 19) with a No. 3 ranking in the first release of the NCAA s Ratings Percentage Index (RPI), the Longhorns ranked at No. 12 in the final release of the regular season (Nov. 6) following its Big 12 loss to Baylor. LAST OF THE UNDEFEATEDS As of Sept. 21, there were only two unbeaten & untied teams left in NCAA Division I soccer: TEXAS and Tennessee. That was until the Lady Vols tied Auburn, 1-1 (2OT), on Sept. 22 and left the Longhorns as the last unblemished squad in the nation. Incredibly, the two teams left represented both stops of Angela Kelly s coaching career (she was the head coach of the Lady Vols from ). AGAINST THE LONE STAR STATE UNDER KELLY Texas holds a record against teams from the Lone Star State under the guidance of head coach Angela Kelly. UT was in such contests last season and is already this year after opening the 2017 campaign on Aug. 18 with a 2-1 victory over Rice, beating North Texas in Denton on Aug. 27, 1-0, knocking off UTRGV in overtime on Sept. 15, 1-0, topping Texas Tech on Sept. 29, 3-2 (2OT), tying TCU on Oct. 6, 1-1 (2OT), beating Baylor on the road, 1-0 (OT), on Oct. 20, losing to Baylor in the Big 12 Championship Quarterfinal on Nov. 1, 2-1 (OT), and beating North Texas in NCAA First Round play on Nov. 10, 3-0. NCAA TEAM OF THE WEEK! Already off to the best start in program history, Texas soccer added another honor on Sept. 13 by being voted as the NCAA Division I Women s Soccer Team of the Week. The Longhorns topped Duke, Princeton and Marquette in a fan vote held through Twitter site. HANDING OUT THE AWARDS Texas picked up two outstanding honors for its work against No. 25 Colorado and Northeastern. Sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen earned her first career inclusion as part of Top Drawer Soccer s National Team of the Week (Sept 12). while junior midfielder Katie Glenn picked up her first nod as the Big 12 Conference s Offensive Player of the Week (Sept. 12). Hintzen registered a goal and two assists over the weekend, while Glenn powered the Longhorns offense from the midfield in the two matches with a pair of goals and an assist for five total points on seven shots Texas Soccer Match Notes 6

8 2017 TEXAS SOCCER A NOTABLE WIN OVER NO. 25 COLORADO Texas 3-0 shutout victory over No. 25 Colorado at Mike A. Myers Stadium on Sept. 8 was notable for many reasons including: With five assists during the win over nationally-ranked Colorado, the instance marked the first time the Longhorns offense was credited with as many as five assists in a single contest since a 6-0 rout of Texas A&M-Corpus Christi on the road back on Sept. 5, 2014, a span of 60 matches. The three goals against No. 25 Colorado marked the most for Texas against a ranked opponent since knocking off No. 22 William & Mary in Austin back on Sept. 12, 2010, 4-0. Since that triumph, UT had faced 30 different ranked foes without scoring as much before its outburst against the Buffaloes. The Longhorns victory over No. 25 Colorado marked its first win at home over a ranked foe since beating No. 6 Texas Tech, 1-0 (OT), back on Sept. 26, UT had been in six match-ups at Mike A. Myers Stadium against ranked teams since that triumph. Texas won the defensive match-up in its Battle of Unbeatens against No. 25 Colorado. The Longhorns pitched their fourth shutout of the season (third straight clean sheet) and broke CU s streak of having not allowed a single goal all season (607:58) by slotting home three scores (two in the opening 25 minutes of play) during a 3-0 triumph. #RAMPED This year, the team has adopted the acronym RAMPED as the guideline for the 2017 campaign. The letters represent the words Respect, Accountability, Mentality, Pursuit of Excellence, Energy and Discipline, all facets of a championship team. The idea behind the creation of the acronym was head coach Angela Kelly, and the plan is for each new Texas soccer team to come up with words to fill out the letters each season. THAT S MAKING A QUICK IMPRESSION Texas freshman midfielder/forward Haley Berg wasted no time showcasing the ability that had coaches across the country looking to lock up her commitment as an eighth grader by scoring her first career collegiate goal JUST 25 SECONDS into her UT debut during the season-opening, 2-1 victory over Rice. Amazingly, it wasn t the fastest goal to start a match in Longhorns history as Jill Cook scored against Vanderbilt in just 10 seconds back during the 1995 campaign. WELCOME TO OUR HIGH-PROFILE SIGNING CLASS! The Longhorns added 10 newcomers (nine freshmen and one transfer) to the roster for 2017 in a class (only the original nine signees - not late add Taylor Currie - were considered) that ranked No. 1 in the Big 12 Conference and No. 14 in the nation by Top Drawer Soccer.

The Longhorns are also in season-opening matches following the win over the Owls and under Kelly s guidance.

12 2017 TEXAS SOCCER MATCH 1 Rice at TEXAS Austin, Texas - Aug. 18, OT OT2 F Rice TEXAS SCORING UT: Haley Berg (Mikayla Flores, Cyera Hintzen), 0:25 UT: Cyera Hintzen (Cydney Billups), 36:07 Rice: Lianne Maranquil (Mallory Radtke), 59:11 AUSTIN, TEXAS - On Friday night at Mike A. Myers Stadium, Texas soccer (1-0-0) got the first career goal from freshman midfielder Haley Berg, a goal and an assist from sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen and six huge saves from sophomore net minder Nicole Curry to help the Longhorns christen the 2017 campaign with a 2-1 victory over Rice (0-1-0). Berg s goal, off assists from Hintzen and redshirt sophomore forward Mikayla Flores, was one of the fastest to start a match in UT history, coming just 25 seconds into the contest to set a positive early tone for the Burnt Orange & White. The quickest opening score to a match in Texas program history was 10 seconds by Jill Cook against Vanderbilt back on October 15, Hintzen led the way for the Longhorns offensively with a goal and an assist on the night for three total points, while redshirt freshman forward Cydney Billups registered her first career assist and point. Curry was stong between the pipes, stopping a pair of Owl 1-v-1 opportunities as part of her six stops in managing her initial career triumph. For the match, Texas and Rice dead-locked at 12 shots each with the Longhorns recording an 8-7 advantage on shots on goal. It was a dream start for the Horns to the 2017 campaign as UT moved to a 1-0 lead over the Owls just 25 seconds in. Hintzen moved up the left wing before crossing a ball into the middle. Flores attempted to chest the ball down inside the 18-yard box but ended up delivering a pass straight to Berg who turned and quickly finished her first career score from seven yards out. The Burnt Orange & White located its second goal at 36:07 to boost the advantage to 2-0. Billups received a feed out on the right wing and moved past a defender to the middle. Near the top of the 18, the Greenwood Village, Colo., native passed out on the left side to Hintzen. The Garland, Texas, product wasted no time by finishing her third career goal into the lower right corner. Things got more interesting during the 60th minute as the Owls managed to cut Texas lead in half. A long pass ahead by defender Mallory Radtke found Lianne Mananquil marked out in front of the left post. Despite UT s defensive pressure, the Rice midfielder managed a quick touch and her roller from eight yards out eluded a diving Curry to make it 2-1. Over the final five minutes, Rice had one final opportunity to locate the tying goal, but Marissa Topolski s shot from 20-plus yards out on the right wing drifted just outside the left upright.

Myers Stadium. For both Stearns and Strouphauer, their goals marked the first of their time on the Forty Acres, while for Strouphauer, the score was also the initial tally of her collegiate career. Stearns previously scored in college during her two-year stint at Boston College. Junior midfielders Katie Glenn and Kayra Dollas were also credited with their first assists of the 2017 season during the triumph. With the victory, the Burnt Orange & White improved to a perfect 2-0 for the first time since the start of the 2010 season. Texas actually began the 2014 campaign at an unbeaten 4-0-2, but tied Arizona State during its opener in Honolulu, Hawai i, 2-2 (2OT). For the match, UT out-shot the Hilltoppers by a commanding total of 21-1, including 14-0 over the opening 45 minutes and 11-0 in shots on goal, while also leading 9-0 in corner kicks. At 18:22, the Horns got on the scoreboard in taking an early 1-0 lead. Out on the right wing, Dollas attempted a shot, but mis-hit it across the goalmouth. The ball traveled directly to Glenn, who immediately lifted a cross into a crowd in the middle of the 18. Leaping up and over the scrum was Stearns, who headed a strong drive into the twine to grant Texas the advantage. With 2:42 remaining on the first-half clock, Strouphauer managed to swipe a ball from a Western Kentucky player about 45 yards out. The Round Rock, Texas, native quickly moved upfield into the middle of the pitch and unleashed a rocket from 28 yards that beat the WKU keeper to make it 2-0. The Hilltopper offense finally managed some brief pressure of its own about minutes into the second frame, registering its only shot of the match on a lengthy try from 40 yards out by midfielder Nicole Roseland at 60:57. The Texas lead nearly expanded to three during the 70th minute. Junior Nakia Graham dribbled quickly up the left wing and crossed a ball to the top of the six-yard box. Waiting was junior forward Alexa Adams who chipped a shot, but the effort deflected slightly off a WKU defender in front of goal. That deflection allowed the keeper the time to just get her right hand on the shot, knocking the ball down before gathering it in for a goal kick.

Dollas goal was her first of the 2017 campaign, tying the match at the 37:48 mark. For Berg, the score marked her second over her first three collegiate games wearing the Burnt Orange & White. Sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen was also credited with her second assist of the season by working a give-and-go on Berg s matchwinning goal at 52:35. Despite a majority of early possession for the Longhorns, it was Little Rock that registered the match s initial shot and goal at 10:49 to nab a 1-0 lead. Off a throw-in from the right side of the pitch, the ball bounced in front of Arola Aparicio Gili. The Trojan midfielder leapt and managed to head a ball over the back line right to midfielder Doro Greulich, who finished past diving Texas goalkeeper Nicole Curry into the lower left corner from 12 yards out. During the 38th minute, the Longhorns managed to locate pay dirt and dead-lock the scoreboard at 1-1. Off a corner, a ball was cleared via header by a Trojan defender inside the 18. The ricochet bounced straight out to Dollas, who wasted no time firing a shot towards frame that hit off a Little Rock defender s head before finding the right side of the twine. At 52:35 it was former club teammates Hintzen and Berg teaming up once again to push the Longhorns to their first lead. The dynamic duo worked a quick give-and-go with Berg receiving the final ball and slotting it home from nine yards out in the middle to make it 2-1. With the UT offense swarming for more, Little Rock managed its only shot of the final 45 minutes at 69:02 as forward Quin Wilkes fired well high from 24 yards out.

The Longhorns defense has allowed just 23 total shots over the first four matches of 2017, an average of only 5.8 shots-per-match. The most dangerous opportunity of the contest for UNT came at the 47:24 mark as Mean Green forward Natalie Newell broke into some space inside the left edge of the 18. She fired a shot from 12 yards out that was deflected away on a terrific diving save by UT sophomore net minder Nicole Curry. The Longhorns missed a huge chance at 61:56 as a long free kick from junior defender Chelsea Surpris was weighted perfectly into the box. Waiting in some space in the middle was junior midfielder Kayra Dollas, but her running header went just up and over the top right corner for a goal kick. Junior midfielder Katie Glenn forced another save at 64:29 as her long shot from deep out on the right wing was caught in the goal mouth by UNT keeper Miranda Schoening. Freshman forward Haley Berg came close to getting the Longhorns on the board during the 67th minute. The Celina, Texas, native s quick blast from 15 yards out on the left side was saved by the net minder s outstretched fingers. The Horns had another outstanding chance go awry at 74:52 as a cross from the right side was deflected out front by UNT s Schoening. The ricochet traveled straight to junior Nakia Graham in clear space about nine yards out, but the Austin, Texas, native s quick one-timed shot popped up and over the crossbar. Finally at 81:48, the Longhorns found the goal that had been so elusive while taking a 1-0 lead. Off a corner, the ball was played short before Glenn eventually fed a pass in towards the left post. The ball ricocheted off a crowd, that included Flores and the UNT keeper, before bouncing out front. Waiting to pounce was Hintzen, who finished into the right side of the netting from 12 yards out.

Following wide efforts during the 12th minute from redshirt sophomore forward Mikayla Flores and redshirt freshman forward Cydney Billups, Texas finally found paydirt at 12:11.

Unfortunately for Sacramento State, the forward s first touch betrayed her as the ball bounced right to Texas net minder Nicole Curry. Two of the Hornets three corners in the match came during the 82nd and 83rd minute, resulting in a blocked shot by defender Amanda Mielke. With the Longhorns wasting time off the clock whenever possible, Sacramento State earned another free kick off a foul in the 85th minute.

Myers Stadium to rally past defending Colonial Athletic Association champion Northeastern (5-3), 3-2 (OT). In scoring, Billups managed the first career goal, golden goal and match-winning score of her brief career on the Forty Acres and served as Texas first home overtime winner since now senior Olivia Brook knocked one home to beat No. 6 Texas Tech back on Sept. 26, 2014, 1-0 (OT). Freshman forward Emily Strouphauer opened Texas offensive account at 50:32 with the second goal of her career, while junior midfielder Katie Glenn tallied a goal for the third straight contest by knocking home a penalty kick at 55:43. Sophomore defender Emma Jett was credited with her first assist of the season, while Hintzen (team-leading fourth) and Glenn (second) earned assists on Billups match-ender. The Longhorns out-shot Northeastern in the match by a commanding 20-7 total, including 10-2 in shots on goal, and dead-locked at 5-5 on corner kicks. NU s early pressure eventually paid off as the UT backline committed a rare mistake during the 14th minute. A through ball split two defenders as forward Carly Wilhelm made a run up the middle to enter the 18. Judged to have been fouled just a foot outside the box, the Huskies earned a free kick in a dangerous position and midfielder Valentina Soares Gache made Texas pay by beating the wall and depositing a shot to the right of diving sophomore keeper Nicole Curry into the left edge of the twine. Out of the break, Texas wasted no time in finally scoring the equalizer. Off a corner taken by sophomore defender Emma Jett, Strouphauer corralled the feed and beat her defender on a move to the middle. The Round Rock, Texas, native tried her luck on a shot from just outside the 18, and somehow, the ball traveled all the way through the crowd out front untouched before settling into the left side of the twine to make it 1-1. The Longhorns needed just 5:11 more of match time to grab their first lead of the afternoon as an Alexa Adams shot from 19 yards out was judged to have struck a Northeastern defender s hand inside the box. With Texas awarded a penalty kick, Glenn stepped up for UT and calmly knocked it home for a 2-1 advantage. The back-and-forth affair continued as the Huskies answered right back at 58:34 as a cross from the left wing to the back post was driven in from six yards out by sliding midfielder Hannah Lopiccolo. With both teams forced into overtime for the first time in 2017, it was the Longhorns who would manage the first offensive opportunity by earning a corner at 96:47. The end would come just 1:50 later as a Glenn shot from distance ricocheted off a crowd near the right post. The deflection bounced right to Billups who calmly brought an end to the proceedings on a shot from eight yards out.

Myers Stadium as sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen scored at the 97:13 mark to help the Longhorns (8-0-0) battle past a game UTRGV (3-3-2) squad, 1-0 (OT). With the triumph, Texas registered the first 8-0 start in program history, while also managing to complete its season non-conference schedule undefeated and untied for the first time. As of this release, UT remained one of just six unblemished teams in NCAA Division I women s soccer alongside UCLA, Radford, Murray State, LSU and Tennessee. Hintzen s golden goal was the second straight for the Longhorns after redshirt freshman Cydney Billups finished off Northeastern with an overtime score back on Sept. 10. The occurrence marked the first time UT has won two overtime matches in a single season since the 2009 campaign when the Horns defeated Colorado twice in OT on Oct. 25 & Nov. 4. This was also the first time the Burnt Orange & White have won in OT during consecutive contests since defeating Illinois (1-0, 2OT) and New Mexico (2-1, OT) on Sept. 3 & 7, The match-winning goal was Hintzen s teamleading fourth score of the campaign (third match-winner), boosting her squad-high point total to 12, and came off Billups third assist of Sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry made three saves between the pipes in earning her fifth-career clean sheet. Texas dominated the match statistically, outshooting the Vaqueros by a 28-5 total, including 7-3 in shots on frame, while managing a 12-1 lead on corner kicks. The Longhorns took control of the contest from the very start possession-wise against a UTRGV squad that played one forward up top the majority of the night while dropping the remaining field players back in a defensive-style bunker. Texas finally found the breakthrough it was searching for in the 98th minute as freshman midfielder Haley Berg played a ball up ahead to Hintzen. The Garland, Texas, native played a quick give-and-go with Billups, inside the middle of the 18, before firing a shot home from eight yards out on the left side to finish the 1-0 victory.

Myers Stadium, freshman midfielder Haley Berg scored her third goal of the season as No. 17 Texas soccer (9-0-0, Big 12 Conference) continued its unblemished run to open 2017 and successfully christened its league campaign in the process with a 1-0 victory over Iowa State (2-7-1, Big 12 Conference). The Longhorns remain the only unbeaten & untied team left in NCAA Division I women s soccer, while their 9-0 record extends the best start in program history. The nine-match winning streak marks the longest such skein for the Burnt Orange & White since Texas won nine consecutive matches over a stretch from Oct. 6-Nov. 3, UT also improved to a perfect 7-0 in one-goal decisions in 2017, just a year after going 2-8 in such contests. For the match, UT out-shot the Cyclones by an count, including 9-3 in shots on goal, while managing an 11-4 advantage on corner kicks. Berg s 50th-minute goal was the third of the season for the Celina, Texas, native and goes down as her second career match-winning score after previously knocking home a 53rd minute tally to beat Little Rock back on Aug. 25, 2-1. Texas sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry registered her sixth clean sheet of the season, on three saves, moving into a tie for 10th in single-season shutouts in program history alongside Abby Smith (2015) and Cami Varnadore (1998, 1999). Perhaps the most dangerous chance for either team during the opening half came for Iowa State at 27:05. In possession of the ball near the left end line, a cross into the middle of the 18 found Brooke Tasker in some space. Unfortunately for the midfielder, her quick shot from 13 yards was mis-hit and went well over the cross bar. Out of the locker room, each squad managed a scoring chance, but it was the Longhorns that nabbed the lead off a corner at 49:14. Off a set piece, Emma Jett played a ball to Berg, who quickly beat her marker on the right side. Moving left into the middle of the 18, she fired a left-footed effort from 14 yards out that located the upper 90 over the out-stretched hands of a leaping Antonia Reyes to make it 1-0. It appeared that the Longhorns had secured a second at 57:43 after a corner was played to the back post. Waiting there was junior midfielder Kayra Dollas, and the Orange, Calif., native drove a header off the turf and into a crowd near the left post. Somehow in the chaos, Reyes managed to corral the bouncing ball over her right shoulder before it could finish crossing the goal line as ISU remained within a single score. In the 87th minute, ISU looked to have a 2-on-1 break going, but Atu Mshana raced back to break up the play before any shot could be taken. Over the final 56 seconds of play, the Cyclones managed two nerve-racking corner kicks. On the last set piece, with 18 ticks remaining on the clock, the ball was delivered perfectly into the left edge of the 18.

The Blue Devils raced past No. 17 Oklahoma State in second round play on Friday night, 7-0. During the penalty kick round, the Longhorns got successful spot kicks from sophomore defender Atu Mshana, junior midfielder Katie Glenn, freshman forward Haley Berg, junior defender Chelsea Surpris, sophomore defender Emma Jett and junior defender Paige Hooper as well as a crucial final save from sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry on Clemson s seventh penalty to advance. Clemson out-shot the Longhorns by a total of 20-7, including 6-3 in shots on goal, and managed a 6-3 discrepancy in corner kicks. It was Texas that would grab the lead during the 61st minute as a long ball over the top found Hintzen in space behind Clemson s backline. The Garland, Texas, native raced in 1-v-1 against Tiger keeper Sandy MacIver and chipped a ball over the charging net minder into the twine from 19 yards out to make it 1-0. After a number of quality opportunities, Clemson located the equalizer with 3:46 left in regulation. A quick burst up the right wing by Mariana Speckmaier ended with a pass towards the right post. Patrice Di- Pasquale raced into the play and managed a leaping volley into the twine from five yards, knotting the score at 1-1. After each team managed a single shot during the first extra session, it was Clemson that would dominate the final 10-minute OT period. Off a Tiger corner during the 105th minute, two quick shots inside the 18 were both blocked away by UT s defense. With just 2:01 remaining in the second OT, Clemson midfielder Shannon Horgan found space in the middle and fired a 12-yard shot towards the left post. Curry dove quickly to her right and somehow managed to get her fingertips on the shot, saving it wide left of the upright. Once in the shootout, both teams were successful on their first spot kicks, but a miss off the left post by CU keeper MacIver pushed Texas in front after two rounds, 2-1. The Longhorns handed back the advantage on their next kick by rattling a try off the left post as the Tigers then scored to dead-lock the shootout at 2-2. Each squad was successful on its PK from rounds four through six, and Hooper pushed the Burnt Orange & White back in front leading off round seven, 6-5. Curry then dove to her right to stop an attempt from Clemson defender Sam Staab and advance UT on to the NCAA Sweet 16.

77 Texas advances to first Sweet 16 since 2007 Published on November 17, 2017 By Matthew Truty The Daily Texan The magical campaign of 2017 rolls on for Texas as they head to the Sweet 16 after sneaking past Clemson on penalty kicks. (I m) just really excited for the squad, throughout the course of the season every single challenge they ve been meeting it and exceeding it, head coach Angela Kelly said. This is a huge step for our program to get back to the Sweet 16 and it s just a really big step and I m just really proud of the team. Squaring off at Koskinen Stadium in Durham, North Carolina, the Longhorns prevailed in yet another battle of wills following a scoreless defensive first half that resulted in just one shot on target for both teams. Any goal scoring opportunities from the dangerous duo of freshman forward Haley Berg and sophomore Cyera Hintzen were erased with the disciplined line of defense along the Tigers midfield and defensive front. With zero first half moments to capitalize on, Texas managed to create one in the second half, finding a through ball to Cyera Hintzen 61 minutes in at the top corner of the 18 yard box. She skillfully chipping it over the Clemson keeper for her 10th goal of the season. Following such a key second half goal in NCAA tournament play, Texas looked to avoid giving up a gut-wrenching late-game goal like they did against Baylor in the Big 12 championship a few weeks back. The Longhorns defense had been stout for most of the game, but fatigue began to wear as Clemson s offensive attack led by freshman forward Mariana Speckmaier began to break down Texas wall of defense.

78 Texas succumbed to the pressure with less than five minutes to play in regulation, as Speckmaier crossed a ball that was deflected mid-air by junior forward Patrice DiPasquale, leveling the game 1-1 as regulation came to a close. Coming into the NCAA tournament in overtime periods, Texas was no stranger to playing extra minutes. However, what changed on this occasion was a date with the unpredictable phenomenon of penalty kicks. Holding a 6-5 lead going into Clemson junior defender Sam Staab s penalty kick, it was do or die for the Tigers against Texas standout keeper Nicole Curry. Staab s right-footed shot in the left corner of the frame was denied by Curry, sending Texas on to the third round to play the No. 1 seeded Duke Blue Devils. She s made some really big time saves and been really steady back there for us, Kelly said on Curry s play. I told her when we were heading out to PK s (penalty kicks), I said, Nicole, you re just going to need to save one, and that s what she did. Duke demolished Oklahoma State 7-0 in their second round matchup Friday night, setting Texas up for very easily their most formidable foe on Sunday. The Blue Devils have only lost two games all year long, both times to No. 2 North Carolina. The Longhorn team has proven before it can compete with top programs, but Sunday against the Blue Devils for an away game will be a tough test.

79 Texas head coach back in familiar territory with second round matchup Published on November 16, 2017 By Dalton Phillips The Daily Texan The first round of the NCAA tournament provided Texas with some much-needed momentum. The second round is where the team will be tested. The No. 4 Longhorns head to Duke on Friday evening for their first-ever postseason contest with Clemson. After dispatching North Texas 3-0 a week ago on a pair of goals from sophomore Cyera Hintzen, Texas stands 90 minutes away from advancing to the quarterfinals for the first time in a decade. For head coach Angela Kelly, the stadium is only a short drive away from the University of North Carolina her alma mater and site of four consecutive NCAA national titles. The former Tar Heel All-American led the UNC team from during its 13-year dynasty run. Back to a familiar spot for me, Kelly said. Back in my neck of the woods from my collegiate career. I m very familiar with Duke University and their facility and playing on that field. So I m excited to take this young squad through this next round, and they re excited and ready to play. Clemson enters Friday having blown past Alabama 2-1 in the first round on a pair of lightning-fast second-half goals. The Tigers, now , are enjoying a third straight second round appearance, propelled by their own forward dynamic duo of graduate senior Jenna Polonsky and freshman Mariana Speckmaier. The pair have each tallied seven goals this season and have a combined 35 of the team s 84 points. Compared to the counterattack-heavy style often favored in the Big 12, Clemson and the ACC employ a far more deliberate brand of soccer an approach that actually aligns more closely with Kelly s system at Texas.

80 The Longhorns haven t faced an East Coast opponent this season but will benefit from Kelly s experience. Clemson would be a squad, if you gave them time, they d like to play attractively (very technically), Kelly said. But they have some fast personalities who can get behind a backline as well. Already coming off a record-setting season, the team again appears poised to plunge Texas deeper into history. This current crop of Longhorns hasn t been here before but they are led by a head coach who has. The collection of underclassmen have already defied a season s worth of expectations, but Kelly says they aren t finished yet. These are small conversations I have with our players, Kelly said. Are we satisfied with just advancing to the next round, or are we ready to take that next step? And over the course of this season, it s been next step, next step, next step.

81 Texas sends statement in NCAA first round win Published on November 11, 2017 By Dalton Phillips The Daily Texan The Longhorns punched their ticket to North Carolina on Friday in style. Sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen scored two goals and freshman forward Haley Berg added one of her own as the team s top goal-scoring duo led Texas past the Mean Green 3-0 at home in the first round of the NCAA tournament. I m really pleased with the result, head coach Angela Kelly said. I thought we did some great things. We were able to give some of our young players more minutes than we were able to in the regular season. We re just really excited to be in the NCAA tournament. Keen on avoiding another early upset, the Longhorns played with a sense of urgency from the opening kick. Just 20 minutes into the contest, Berg split two North Texas defenders and crossed the ball to a waiting Hintzen. The forward quickly lined up a shot and blasted it home from 14 yards to give Texas the lead. Moments later, Berg made it a two-score game with a clean one-on-one move and finish past Mean Green goalkeeper Brooke Bradley. After narrowly escaping with a win on the road in the two program s first meeting this season in August, Texas looked like the far more polished team on Friday night. I think we just settled down and played more composed, Hintzen said. We realized when we can string passes together we can get into the box. We took that into consideration and applied it more out on the field. The rest of the match following the opening two goals was all Texas. The team set the tempo on both ends, outshooting their opponents 15-8 and allowing only three shots on goal. Sophomore goalie Nicole Curry recorded a program-best eleventh shutout with her three saves. Coming out of the break, the Longhorns put the final nail in the coffin as Hintzen notched her ninth goal of the season. A deep pass from midfield bounced through several North Texas defenders before landing at her feet seven yards from the goal. A quick tap is all it took to make it 3-0. Texas now prepares for a trip to Durham for a second-round matchup with Clemson. After several disappointing losses, including to Baylor in the first round of the Big 12 Championship, the team appears to have righted the ship. We came together as a team at the start of this new season, Berg said. We took mistakes from this season and fixed those. Obviously, we have more stuff to work on, but I think we came together and we re excited to move on to the next round.

82 Soccer Texas soccer relishes a rare NCAA tournament home match, but wants more Posted November 9th, 2017 Chris Bils Hookem.com Staff When Texas steps out onto the field at Mike A. Myers Stadium on Friday, it will be the first time the program has hosted an NCAA tournament match since Most of the players on Texas roster were still in high school when the Longhorns beat Rice in that 2014 first-round match, but then again Angela Kelly s young team is developing a habit of firsts. Texas (13-3-2) started the season unbeaten through its first 13 matches, a first in program history. In September, the Longhorns beat West Virginia for the first time since the Mountaineers joined the Big 12. Perhaps the only negative first came on Nov. 1, when the team s 17 underclassmen lost their first college postseason match, a 2-1 setback to Baylor in the quarterfinals of the Big 12 tournament in Kansas City. That was their first taste of an elimination game, Kelly said. (Friday) night is going to be the same. But this same young team had taken this program to 11-0, something that this program hadn t done in its history. They re very capable of taking the next step. North Texas (14-3-4), seeded fifth, should be a familiar opponent for the fourth-seeded Longhorns. The teams played each other on Aug. 27 in Denton, a 1-0 win for Texas on a late goal by sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen. Hintzen leads the team with seven goals and five assists. They re very aggressive and they always compete with us, Hintzen said of the Mean Green. We always know that it s going to be a battle. We just need to go out there and be confident and play our style.

83 Still, the offense has dried up recently. Texas last scored multiple goals in a 3-2 win over Texas Tech on Sept. 29. But the Longhorns also haven t given up more than two goals in a match all season; they have 11 shutouts. Since that 11-0 start, however, Texas has gone Our confidence is no different than what it was in the beginning of the season, said Katie Glenn, a sophomore midfielder from Round Rock who has five goals and three assists. We might have gotten off our horse a little bit, but I think everyone is right there and we re ready to compete and do well. Friday s winner will meet either Alabama or Clemson in the second round, which likely will be played at Duke. For now, the Longhorns are relishing in the opportunity to play in an NCAA tournament match at home. To be be able to step on the field in November is a big accomplishment for us, Glenn said. I think we re all really excited to play again. It s basically a new season for us, so we re all just really excited and ready to compete.

84 Soccer Back in NCAA tournament, Texas will open with rematch against North Texas Posted November 6th, 2017 Danny Davis American-Statesman Staff After a two-year absence, Texas has returned to the NCAA s women s soccer tournament. Texas learned its postseason fate Monday when the NCAA unveiled the tournament bracket. UT earned a No. 4 seed and will face North Texas at Myers Stadium at 5 p.m. Friday. If victorious, the Longhorns would take on Alabama or Clemson in a match that likely would be played at Duke. Texas (13-3-2) last reached the NCAA tournament in The Longhorns failed to even qualify for the Big 12 s postseason tournament in I think for every one of the institutions that compete in Division I, I think this is a marker that they set their goals for. Certainly, something that is an expectation here at Texas, said Angela Kelly, UT s sixthyear coach. I think the résumé and all of the work put in throughout the course of the season by this young group has afforded them this opportunity, an opportunity that will not be taken for granted. Texas retained much of its offensive firepower from last year, and the team welcomed Mikayla Flores and Alexa Adams back from injury. Haley Berg also was among the impact players in UT s 2017 recruiting class. Texas was unbeaten over its first 13 matches, the best start in UT history. The Longhorns slumped down the stretch, though, and were bounced from the first round of the Big 12 Tournament. Berg joined Cyera Hintzen and Katie Glenn on the all-conference team. Nicole Curry recorded a schoolrecord 10 shutouts. We just need to focus back on our core values, Glenn said. I think we kind of reset our minds and are ready to go for this tournament. North Texas is One of those defeats was a 1-0 loss to Texas on Aug. 27. On that day in Denton, the Longhorns were boosted by a late goal from Hintzen.

85 Texas suffers first-round exit in Big 12 tournament Published on November 2, 2017 By Matthew Truty The Daily Texan With a few minutes remaining in the second half and holding a 1-0 lead, the Longhorns were on the cusp of sealing a victory over Baylor in the quarterfinals of the Big 12 tournament. But that never came to fruition as the Bears fought back for a 2-1 win in overtime, with Baylor midfielder Julie James delivering the golden goal. Baylor came out aggressive in the first half against the No. 4-seeded Longhorns, pressing with a flurry of attacks led by junior forward Lauren Piercy and All-Big 12 first team forward Aline de Lima. De Lima and Baylor attacked the holes in the Texas defense with three shots on sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry in the last 10 minutes before halftime, but the Longhorns held strong despite only putting up one shot on goal. We need to return the physicality and just play a little quicker, head coach Angela Kelly said in an interview on the TV broadcast prior to heading to the locker room. We gotta stop giving the ball back as soon as we win it. On the offensive side of the ball, freshman forward Haley Berg and sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen had often been the creators and scorers for Texas this season, but both were held without any real quality opportunities against Baylor s defense. Texas found a moment of brilliance from junior midfielder Katie Glenn, who scored in the 72nd minute. Fresh off of All-Big 12 first team honors, Glenn slipped through the Baylor defense and scored after receiving a through ball from Berg. The momentum was short-lived for Texas, though, as Piercy s strike off a cross tied the game up with under two minutes to play in regulation. Texas had been 5 1 in overtime games this season entering Wednesday s match. In overtime, the Bears led a gashing attack. De Lima delivered a through ball to James, who sealed the win in the 99th minute with a golden goal. Texas excellent regular season performances have put themselves in a good position for the NCAA tournament, but an early exit in the Big 12 tournament will hang over the Longhorns heads. Now, Texas must sit at home and wait for an NCAA tournament selection.

86 After magical first season, Texas forward hitting her goals Published on November 17, 2017 By Dalton Phillips Freshman Haley Berg sat under the cool evening sky, taking in the last regular season game of her freshman season at Texas. She considered the past three months. A 5-foot-6 forward and midfielder from tiny Celina in North Texas, Berg came to Austin to honor a commitment she made over four years ago. She assisted on a goal in an exhibition match against Incarnate Word. She earned a starting spot in her first collegiate match against Rice. Twenty-five seconds in, she scored her first goal. It didn t take long for Berg whom Texas head coach Angela Kelly praised as the closest definition to the consummate goal scorer that I ve seen to make her mark on Texas soccer. Before Berg arrived, Texas was projected by the conference preseason poll to finish above only two other programs in the Big 12. Last year s team posted a conference record and missed the conference and national championships. Led by Berg and her former teammate from FC Dallas, sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen, Texas rattled off a program-record 12 straight wins and finished fourth in the Big 12 conference, taking down the NCAA tournament runner-up, then-no. 5 West Virginia, in the process. Berg finished the season with five goals, three of them game-winners the secondmost on the team behind Hintzen. The team s most valuable pair finished with a combined 32 of Texas 76 total season points and helped the Longhorns reach a season high of No. 7 in the country its highest ranking since 2008.

87 Now, on the field on senior night, Berg huddled on her black Texas jacket and felt the pieces had fallen into place. Texas had lost the matchup in overtime, its first loss of the season in extra minutes, on a shot that, as sophomore goalie Nicole Curry described it, the Cowgirls kind of got lucky with. But the sour end couldn t dampen the 17-game stretch that transformed the program narrative and catapulted the Longhorns back into the national spotlight. Getting wins has been my proudest moment this season, Berg said. And proving people wrong. They ranked us No. 8 in the conference preseason poll. So ending the season and proving those people wrong has been a really proud moment for me and everyone else. This season proved the realization of a dream years in the making. Entering the ninth grade, she was fielding full scholarship offers from the University of Colorado, Texas A&M and the University of Texas. She was the subject of a 2014 story in The New York Times about college recruiting and youth soccer. But there was never any question where she d end up. Well before her commitment, and even before she had any idea she might play at the collegiate level, Berg was drawn to Texas. I remember when I was 4, my dad coached my team, and he asked me to name it, Berg said. So I named it the Longhorns. I have always had a love for Texas. Berg was named the conference freshman of the year, following in the footsteps of Hintzen last year s recipient. The duo, along with junior midfielder Katie Glenn, also earned spots on the Big 12 All-Conference teams. Our friendship has definitely helped the chemistry between us, Hintzen said. It s great having another player on the field that reads the game the same way as you. Like, I know if I made this run she can get the ball to me. It s a great relationship to have on and off the field. The pair helped one another all season long. Hintzen was a source of experience. She kept things light through months of grinding.

88 Cyera is a great leader, Berg said. Her and I have been really close friends since I was little. I m just glad that we got to play in college together. And we will for the next two years. Two more seasons spell trouble for the rest of the Big 12. After a storybook start, Berg still has a lot left to prove. And three years to make it happen. I think that it s been a great season, it s been everything I hoped it would be and more, but I think don t think that we ve accomplished much yet, Berg said. We have so much left.

89 Texas falls to Oklahoma State in OT, drops in tournament seeding Published on October 30, 2017 By Dalton Phillips The Daily Texan One hundred scoreless minutes into the last match of Texas regular season on Friday night, the crowd of over 2,000 sat holding its breath, waiting for the Longhorns to work their overtime magic. The Longhorns were previously undefeated in extra minutes this season and unbeaten between the bleachers at Mike A. Myers Stadium. Senior night and a home closer provided the perfect backdrop to end conference play and clinch the No. 2 seed heading into the Big 12 tournament. Sophomore goalie Nicole Curry had already earned five saves by the hundredth minute. Texas defense had weathered a number of close calls from the lightning-fast counterattacks of the conference s best offense. But as the seconds ticked down in overtime, Oklahoma State defender Laurene Tresfield launched a header from the left side off of a Cowgirl corner, and Texas season ended on an errant roll and Longhorn loss. A visibly upset Texas team slid to the fourth seed in the conference tournament with Friday s loss, and could only watch as the cheering Oklahoma State squad headed to the locker room to celebrate. I think that we lost focus for a second, and credit to them for scoring that goal, freshman midfielder and forward Haley Berg said. It was obviously a hard angle, but I think that if we had just stayed focused on taking our chances, then I think that it would have been different. Texas struggled to generate clean looks on offense throughout the contest. A number of trips up the field ended in deep shots from outside the box as the Cowgirls stayed compact on the defensive end and looked to counterattack Longhorn overextensions. They just sit five or six or seven back, head coach Angela Kelly said. If you don t have patience, then you have to end up taking these long-range shots, which is exactly what they re hoping that you ll do. Definitely a game that we ll grow from. The Longhorns also failed to capitalize on the few scoring opportunities it had. Texas redshirt freshman forward Cydney Billups clanked a soft shot off the right bar in the first half, and redshirt sophomore forward Mikayla Flores beat her defender to the spot only to have a header bounce clean off the frame coming out of the break. Out of 13 Texas shots in the game, only four were on target. With the loss, the Longhorns earned a rematch with Baylor on Wednesday in the first round of the Big 12 Championship tournament. In spite of a roster that boasts little postseason action, Kelly is confident her team will come out with the same composure they ve demonstrated all season. To finish with only two losses on the season, I think that s given them a ton of experience, Kelly said. To come out on top on the other end of five of our overtimes, I think that we re pretty battle-tested.

90 Texas plays its best soccer in overtime Published on October 18, 2017 By Dalton Phillips The Daily Texan When the clock hits zero at the end of regulation, Texas fans know they are in for something special. Six times this season, the No. 9 Longhorns have forced overtime. Four of those have come at home, the other two on the road. And Texas has emerged undefeated through all of them. The team thrives in extra time. And they get there often. The most recent golden goal came on Sunday as freshman forward Haley Berg found the back of the net on the road against Kansas State. When asked about the play, Berg responded with the same composure she s demonstrated all season on and off the field for Texas. (Sophomore forward) Cyera (Hintzen) took her players away, Berg said. And I just decided to try the shot. That shot proved to be a 17-yard game winner, snapping the team s three-game winless slide and placing Texas (12 1 2, Big 12) in position to finish first in the Big 12 with two games remaining. Six trips to extra time are no accident. Texas ball-dominant style forces overtimes when the team can t convert on its looks. The Longhorns have attempted the second-most shots in the Big 12. But more importantly, they lead the conference in corner kicks with 54 such attempts. This is a squad that commands possession for a majority of its contests and gives its opponents few chances to respond. That s the way Texas wants it. Once overtime starts, head coach Angela Kelly credits the team mentality in getting the job done and the players have proven just how lethal that can be. The team has only allowed a single shot on goal in those six overtimes.

91 As for the rest of the conference, only Iowa State has also forced extra minutes on six occasions. But the Cyclones have been just the opposite of Texas this season winless in overtime contests. Berg now sits at No. 3 in Big 12 game winners this season. Two spots above is Hintzen, who leads the conference with five. Texas finished last in the conference a year ago. The difference this year has been the team s ability to close out tight games, a skill that will prove crucial come postseason. Regardless of the adversity, and regardless of whether it s overtime, we re going to give 100 percent of ourselves. Every minute, Kelly said.

92 Soccer Soccer s Haley Berg was a Longhorn even before she was a Longhorn Posted October 19th, 2017 Danny Davis American-Statesman Staff When she was four, Haley Berg s father let her name the youth-league soccer team that he d coach and she d play on. Berg went with the Lady Longhorns, which should have been a sign of things to come. Berg would grow up as a fan of Texas Longhorns, and she had family members who attended the university. She also gave her commitment to UT s soccer team while she was in the eighth grade, a decision that was chronicled in the New York Times. Texas (12-1-2, Big 12) travels to Baylor (10-3-2, 4-2-1) on Friday. UT is one of four Big 12 teams with only one loss in conference play. The freshman midfielder from Celina will appear in her 16th match as a Longhorn. A dream come true, right? Not even just due to us rooting for them, Berg said. Just fulfilling a dream of being happy at a college, I think that was mostly my dream. I m beyond happy here. Berg has made an immediate impact at Texas. Only sophomore Cyera Hintzen has bettered Berg s five goals and 12 points. Hintzen s seven goals and 19 points lead the Big 12. Three of Berg s five goals have been game-winners. Set up by Hintzen, Berg scored her first-ever sudden-death strike in the overtime session of a 1-0 win at Kansas State on Oct. 15. Berg was also responsible to the deciding kicks in UT s 2-1 and 1-0 wins over Arkansas-Little Rock and Iowa State. For her efforts, Berg has twice been named the Big 12 s freshman of the week. She s a special talent and we ve been excited to get Haley Berg on the Forty Acres for the past four years, Texas coach Angela Kelly said. I think stepping into the college environment, she s assimilated herself extremely well. When she s coming in with this skill set with still a lot more to bring to the table, that s kind of exciting for her and her career. Berg played only two years of high school soccer since Celina didn t begin its varsity high school program until (Berg scored 105 goals in those two seasons). She s hardly a novice in the sport, though.

93 She was spotted by Texas while playing on a club team with future UT teammates Hintzen, Atu Mshana and Maddie Dorsett. Berg spent middle school and high school with teams in the Elite Clubs National League, and she played at the 2016 Women s International Cup with the U.S. Under-18 national team. Berg said club soccer was treated like the main priority in our household, and she even once saw a soccer therapist to help with her preparation for matches. Berg tried out other sports like gymnastics, basketball and cross country. Those activities, however, would inevitably conflict with soccer, so it s really just been soccer. On the pitch, Berg isn t hard to spot. In addition to wearing No. 2, she has always sported a Nike headband. Her headband of choice this season is a pink one given to her by her mother before her UT debut which she scored 25 seconds into. She brushes her teeth before every match and has a semicolon tattooed on her left wrist. Another two semicolons have been etched onto her left cleat. The semicolons are an ode to her older brother Chandler, who committed suicide when she was a high school sophomore. Her father has the same tattoo. The semicolon is instead of putting a period to stop a sentence or end a life, you put a semicolon, you keep going, said Berg, who got the tattoo before the season started. It s just a reminder of my brother.

94 Texas adjusts to Hintzen s injury before road trip Published on October 12, 2017 By Matthew Truty The Daily Texan Thirteen games without a loss, and yet the urgency to get back on a winning track has never been greater for the 2017 Longhorns. Texas is striving to break a two-game tie streak after beginning the season with 11 consecutive wins and will need to get back on track quick to grab the No. 1 seed in the Big 12 Tournament. The scoreless contest Texas endured against Oklahoma became a greater concern against TCU when forward Cyera Hintzen was pulled out of the game by head coach Angela Kelly. The sophomore was pulled by Kelly to mitigate the damage of a tweak in her leg. Hintzen s impact this year speaks for itself. She s netted seven goals in 13 games, solidifying her spot as one of the top young players in the nation. Retaining a healthy squad heading into the Big 12 championships is now a clear priority for Kelly, but it leaves uncertainty for a lineup that now requires some rotation. I think everybody needs to take a deep breath and just be a little introspective, Kelly said. (We) just need to understand what it takes at the highest level. But if you think about what this team is doing and the amount of teams that are coming after them, we are going to use it as a learning environment. Kelly and her players realize Hintzen s nearly irreplaceable value to the team. In addition to her own scoring prowess, she s brought added acceleration to the development of the rest of the younger Longhorns, particularly on the offensive side of the ball. Freshman forward Haley Berg has been able to thrive alongside Hintzen on the Longhorn attacking front scoring four goals of her own. But time will tell if Hintzen s injury will slow Berg s progress and deny Texas the opportunity to play at its highest level.

95 Despite Hintzen s possible absence, this weekend s slate of road games against Kansas and Kansas State gives Texas a chance to restore their winning confidence and adjust after a week of rest. We worked so hard to get here, sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry said. So I don t think any of us are going to let it slip away. Kelly has praised the talented youth of this year s team on several occasions and noted it as a major contributing factor to the Longhorns success in But even with their inexperience, this year s group has proved mature in their approach to each game, staying level headed even when facing strenuous circumstances. They ll need to continue with that approach over the weekend. We have the opportunity to get that Big 12 Championship, junior midfielder Kayra Dollas said. So I think just thinking about that going into games and being ready to work hard, we ll be fine.

96 Soccer Texas soccer climbs into top 10 in all major polls Posted September 26th, 2017 Chris Bils Hookem.com Staff Texas soccer continued its climb to national prominence Tuesday, earning the No. 8 ranking in the United Soccer Coaches poll. It is the program s highest standing in the poll since Sept. 30, The Longhorns are ranked as high as No. 7 by Soccer America and are also ranked No. 8 by Top Drawer Soccer. The latest NCAA Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) has Texas at No. 5, down two spots from last week. The lofty rankings come on the heels of a massive win for the program over then No. 5-ranked West Virginia on Sunday. Sophomore Cyera Hintzen scored a goal in the 88th minute to send UT past the 2016 national runners-up, snapping a conference record 24-match unbeaten streak for the Mountaineers. Texas moved to 10-0 on the season and maintained its standing as the last remaining unbeaten, untied team in the country. The Longhorns are 2-0 in Big 12 Conference play, including a 1-0 win over Iowa State on Friday. With the team recognition also came some individual accolades. Texas sophomore defender Atu Mshana was selected as Top Drawer Soccer s national player of the week following the pair of shutouts. The Big 12 rewarded Texas with all three of its weekly honors going to Hintzen (offensive player of the week), sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry (defensive player of the week) and freshman midfielder Haley Berg (freshman of the week).

97 Soccer No. 17-ranked Texas soccer shocks No. 5 West Virginia, stays unbeaten Posted September 24th, 2017 Chris Bils Hookem.com Staff With one swing of her left foot, Texas sophomore Cyera Hintzen sent waves across the national soccer landscape. Hintzen s late goal secured a 1-0 victory over fifth-ranked West Virginia the 2016 national runnersup Sunday at Mike A. Myers Stadium, moving the 17th-ranked Longhorns to 10-0 on the season. The loss ended a string of 24 matches without a loss for the Mountaineers, which was the longest streak in conference history. Sunday s defeat was only their second since joining the league in 2012 (36-2-3). It was a battle of wills, said Texas coach Angela Kelly. I m just really pleased with how the team responded. I ve said it a million times, they re a young squad. To find that type of resiliency against a a very mature team that was in the Final Four last year, I m very pleased. After nearly 88 minutes of knocking on the door, Hintzen busted it down with her shot from the left side of the penalty area. Junior midfielder Katie Glenn a Rouse product set up the opportunity with a pass from the left wing. Hintzen s shot deflected off a West Virginia defender before burrowing into the bottom right corner of the net with 2 minutes, 20 seconds left in regulation. I was stunned that I got it in the box with so much time, said Hintzen, who has a team-high five goals on the season. We had a lot of great opportunities and I knew this one needed to go back post. About 40 seconds later, sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry came up with the biggest save of her young career, on a point-blank shot by West Virginia forward Michaela Abam to preserve the lead and a third-straight shutout. The Mountaineers (8-3, 1-1) controlled possession throughout most of a first half in which they had seven shots to the Longhorns three.

98 Texas shifted momentum at the start of the second half behind forward Mikayla Flores, who came off the bench to provide a spark to the attack. The sophomore had a team-high six shots, including a pair of close calls just after halftime. Hintzen also had a decent chance off a 53rd-minute free kick that she put over the crossbar, and midfield stalwart Kayra Dollas header off a corner kick in the 73rd was saved off the line by a West Virginia defender. The Longhorns outshot the Mountaineers 11-6 in the second half. The win moved the Longhorns to 2-0 in conference play following a 1-0 victory over Iowa State on Friday. It is the best start in program history that now includes a win over a top-five team for the first time since 2010, when they beat No. 5 Oklahoma State. West Virginia came in having beaten three ranked opponents No. 1 Penn State, No. 5 Georgetown and No. 14 Princeton. Last season, the Mountaineers lost to Southern California 3-1 in the national championship game. It s amazing, it s incredible, Flores said. To come out here and beat West Virginia 1-0, I don t even know that last time that they ve lost a game in conference. We re taking it one game at a time, and just because we beat them doesn t meant that we re going to come out any different next weekend.

99 Soccer Texas soccer player Nakia Graham finds her footing on and off the pitch Posted September 21st, 2017 Danny Davis American-Statesman Story highlights Graham comes from a family of athletes; her father was a two-time Olympian in track and field and her mother ran in the world indoor championships. She's currently nursing a quad injury but has played in seven of Texas' matches this season; the Longhorns are 8-0 and nationally ranked. Athletic success has filtered down to her siblings as well her brother was a hurdler at Texas A&M and her sister won a state tennis singles title last year. Nakia Graham doesn t speak much about herself. In fact, the Texas junior soccer player prefers to keep her story on the down-low. That s too bad, because Graham s book already features some interesting chapters. Graham is a midfielder on UT s 8-0 soccer team. She s the daughter of an Olympian and sister of a state champion. Her first name is the inverse of her older brother Aikan s. Thanks to the auto-correct on teammate Katie Glenn s phone, she s earned a nickname of Nacho that low-key annoys me. She s majoring in international relations and global studies, in part because her father is Jamaican and her mother is German. Graham paints and writes. She recently got a quotation mark tattoo on her right wrist that she says symbolizes everything from her passions to the suppression of African- American voices. Nakia s just a really special soul, Texas coach Angela Kelly said. She s not one of those people on the team that just talks, talks, talks until she s asked, and she always has a very thoughtful perspective. When Nakia speaks, I always turn and hear what she s going to say. Graham, in her third season, has been a part of the best start in school history. At 8-0, Texas is joined by Tennessee as the only Division I teams without a loss or tie. The Longhorns are ranked 17th in the United Soccer Coaches poll and third in the RPI rankings.

100 Texas opens up Big 12 play on Friday with a home match against Iowa State. UT hosts No. 5 West Virginia on Sunday. The expectation is to win every game, so I think that we re off to a great start, Graham said. Obviously there s still a lot of season left to play. Right now, we re just worried about whoever is next. Graham registered one assist and has played 330 minutes in her first two seasons. She s seen more playing time this year, taking three shots in her seven matches, but is currently sidelined by a quad injury. I have absolutely no qualms in trusting and knowing that when Nakia s on the field, she s going to get the job done, Kelly said. Graham is a Longhorns legacy. Her father, Winthrop, ran track at Texas from and won Olympic silver medals for Jamaica in Seoul in 1988 (1,600 relay) and Barcelona in 1992 (400-meter hurdles). He still owns UT s record for the 400-meter hurdles. Graham concedes that her father in the best athlete in the family. But Winthop Graham s hardly the only standout. Graham s mother, Yvonne, ran the 1,500 meters for East Germany at the 1989 World Indoor Championships. Aikan Graham was a hurdler at Texas A&M. Graham s younger sisters Kiana and Kinaa both play tennis; Kiana won the Class 6A singles state title last year as a freshman at Westwood. It s definitely a privilege, said Aikan Graham, who works at Dell. We re blessed with good genes, so therefore it s a waste if we don t use them. We ve done a pretty good job of taking advantage of that. Graham has played soccer since she was four or five years old. She s also dabbled in basketball ( Even though I m really short, noted the 5-4 Graham), tennis and volleyball. Graham, though, was focusing solely on soccer and track by the time she got to Westwood. Whereas her family members shined in individual sports, Graham said she migrated toward soccer because of the team aspect. Soccer, she says, is the best fit for a personality that her brother described as thoughtful and introverted. It s just whatever sport fits with our personalities, Graham said. I know that (for) my sisters, tennis fits their personalities perfectly. My brother was such a track person, and I think soccer fits me. Off the field, Graham has plenty of hobbies. She draws, writes and reads. She enjoys traveling and chose her major in an effort to learn about different cultures. Graham also paints, a passion that has led to in-home work as an interior decorator since she becomes attached to her artwork. It s really important for me to have a life outside of soccer, Graham said. Sometimes separating yourself from that is really important. What I do with art or if I go hang out with friends, I think that s really important for every student-athlete to have, just have some kind of space outside of their sport.

101 Texas eager to ride momentum into Big 12 matchups Published on September 22, 2017 By Matthew Truty The Daily Texan As head coach Angela Kelly and the Longhorns emerge from non-conference play undefeated, a reminder of last year s conference struggles will certainly be a point of emphasis this year. Last season, five of Texas six Big 12 losses came by just a goal, exemplifying how close the Longhorns were to putting themselves in a more competitive position. We had so many close matches last year, and this year our young group is figuring out a way to win those matches, Kelly said. And I think that s what we re seeing. And to be achieving the results we are right now, that s what we re here for. Texas hopes to rectify the mistakes of 2016 with an improved level of play in its Big 12 weekend debut, which will begin against a scuffling Iowa State unit. The Cyclones have recorded just two wins in 10 games thus far in But don t expect a poor record to alter Texas preparation. The most important game on our schedule is Friday night. I ve said that since day one, and we re not going to change anything, Kelly said. One thing you are guaranteed is that whoever our opponent is next, they re going to get our utmost respect, and they are going to get 100 percent of what the Longhorns have to bring. Texas jumped four spots to No. 17 in the nation this week on the United Soccer Coach Rankings list while being placed at No. 3 in the NCAA Women s Soccer RPI. Those rankings are uncharted territory for the program. Texas already has eight wins in 2017 they won eight games all of last year. In order to maintain this year s string of success, however, Texas must be alert against all conference opponents. No. 5 West Virginia the runner-up in the 2016 Women s College Cup will be visiting the Longhorns this Sunday in what is sure to be an excellent test for the program. West Virginia will look to continue its impressive play. The Mountaineers have won at least 16 games in each of the past four seasons, three of which resulted in a Big 12 title. With a 7 2 start in 2017, they appear poised to make another run at the National Championship. Texas knows it faces lofty expectations heading into conference play, but the team s leaders insist they are only focused on their end-of-year goals. I think it s great to come 8 0 out of preseason, junior forward Alexa Adams said, but our main focus is to go through the season and try to keep that record and play every team to the best of our ability so that we can make the Big 12 tournament and go on to the NCAA tournament.

102 Longhorns rewrite program narrative as Big 12 play looms Published on September 21, 2017 By Dalton Phillips The Daily Texan Coming off of an campaign in 2016, not much was expected of the Longhorns in their non-conference slate. The burnt orange finished ninth in the Big 12 standings last season, falling well short of the NCAA Tournament. Entering 2017, Texas was once again projected for mediocrity. A squad stocked with freshmen usually leads to what is politely referred to as a rebuilding year a season to be written off. But over the course of five short weekends, Texas has shattered those expectations. Just eight games ago, the Longhorns were projected to finish eighth in the annual Big 12 Conference preseason poll. Now, they prepare for their match with Iowa State on Friday as the No. 17 team in the country, trailing only No. 5 West Virginia in the conference rankings. Texas and No. 21 Tennessee remain the only undefeated programs in the country, and Texas boasts the higher opponent win percentage of the two. This historic non-conference streak has been the platform for the team s ascent among athletic programs at the University. Longhorn soccer is back on the map, and the rest of Texas has taken note. We have one of the best, top-ranked teams in the country as far as swim and volleyball, junior defender Chelsea Surpris said. They ve all been like, Wow, Texas soccer, really bringing it this year. And I think that s really got us feeling good about ourselves. The difference has been a freshman class that thrives under pressure. The Longhorns of a year ago struggled mightily in tight matches, posting a record in one-goal contests and a record in overtime matches. Already, this young squad paired with a handful of returning leaders has managed to claim back-to-back overtime and numerous single-score victories. What you re seeing is, and I ve said it since day one, our young players are talented, head coach Angela Kelly said. With experience on the U.S. national teams and top club teams around the country, the freshman class has demonstrated composure and soccer IQ far beyond its years. (Our freshmen) understand the game, Kelly said. And I think that s what we re seeing. We re seeing mature moments. The Longhorns have to keep up the good work in one of the toughest conferences in the country. That starts this weekend with matchups against Iowa State and 2016 Big 12 champion West Virginia. The first eight games opened the door to a new chapter in Texas soccer. The next nine will write that chapter.

103 Soccer Ever the perfectionist, Angela Kelly has unbeaten, untied Texas soccer climbing Posted September 20th, 2017 Chris Bils Hookem.com Story highlights Texas is a perfect 8-0, one of only two teams in the country that are still unbeaten and untied. Tennessee is the other. Texas has signed back-to-back Top 15-rated recruiting classes. The 2016 group ranked 15th nationally, the 2017 class 14th. Among the eight victoires is a win over No. 25 Colorado and back-to-back overtime wins over Northeastern and UT-RGV. Maybe Angela Kelly recognizes perfection better than most. Her soccer career began as a player at North Carolina and 83 straight wins. Those Tar Heels teams, which also included future world champions Mia Hamm, Kristine Lilly and Tisha Venturini, won four straight national championships from Later, as the head coach at Tennessee, Kelly took a middling Vols program and built it into one of the most feared in the SEC. And now, five years into her tenure at Texas, Kelly s relentless pursuit of perfection is starting to take hold. As Big 12 play begins on Friday, the 17th-ranked Longhorns are 8-0, one of only two unbeaten and untied teams left in the country. The other is No. 21 Tennessee. In other words, so far, the Longhorns are perfect. (Perfection) has driven me my whole life, Kelly said. Ninety-seven percent of society is average and mediocre, and that s fine. Three percent of the people are really going after it and pursuing excellence, and I want to be competing with those 3 percent. The Longhorns have climbed into the United Soccer Coaches rankings for the first time since 2010 and have already matched their win total from last season, when they finished ninth out of 10 teams in the Big 12. The best start in program history is the result of enough perfectionists gathered in one place,

104 all pulling in the same direction, and it didn t just start when the team convened for preseason in August. The Longhorns are quick to point out the contributions of players like goalkeeper Abby Smith, currently of the Boston Breakers and the U.S. Women s National Team, or midfielders Lindsey Meyer and Julia Dyche, or forwards Kelsy Shimmick, Jasmine Hart and Sydney Shutter all of whom have moved on from UT. They built the foundation for this, said junior forward Alexa Adams, who has one goal and one assist this season. Every year we ve had a learning lesson and I think that s helped us to where we are right now. Stacked on top of the sturdy foundation is an influx of elite talent. Texas 2017 recruiting class was ranked 14th in the country and the 2016 class ranked 15th. Both classes were at the top of the Big 12, and many of those players have already started to contribute. Sophomore Cyera Hintzen, the Big 12 s freshman of the year in 2016, leads Texas with four goals and four assists. Freshmen Haley Berg (2 goals, 2 assists), Cydney Billups (1 goal, 3 assists) and Cedar Ridge s Emily Strouphauer (2 goals) have brought instant production. We really just look for players that we don t want to play against, Kelly said. Kelly labels her players future professionals and expects them to live by her R.A.M.P.E.D. mentality letters that stand for respect, accountability, mentality, pursuit of excellence, effort and discipline. In their quest to achieve Kelly s perfect 90 minutes of soccer, the Longhorns have arrived on the doorstep of the sport s elite. The coach is quick to point out that they re not there yet. We re nowhere near a finished product, she said. We have a ton of room for growth. There s no denying that the perfect record, as well as a 3-0 win over No. 25 Colorado followed by backto-back sudden-death overtime victories over Northeastern and UT-Rio Grand Valley, have built a buzz not seen in years. Wow, Texas soccer. They re really bringing it this year, junior defender Chelsea Surpris said is the refrain she s heard from other UT athletes. That s really got us feeling good about ourselves to carry that weight on our back, but in a positive way. It s not perfect, yet. But Texas soccer is getting there.

105 Texas ekes out eighth-straight victory, finishes undefeated in nonconference play Published on September 18, 2017 By Matthew Truty Another overtime victory provided No. 21 Texas with its eighth-straight nonconference victory on Friday night, the second-straight game in which the Longhorns won past regulation. After a scoreless 90 minutes, the Longhorns found the net early in the overtime period, besting UT-Rio Grande Valley 1-0. Despite coming in as underdogs, Rio Grande Valley held its own on the defensive end heading into Friday s match, never allowing more than one goal per contest. And while the Longhorn attack excelled at putting the ball in the net against then-ranked Colorado and reigning Colonial Athletic Association champion Northeastern a week prior, the opposite was true against the Vaqueros. Texas struggled to conjure up a goal in the first half, despite outshooting Rio Grande Valley Slow starts were an issue for Texas head coach Angela Kelly s squad last week against Northeastern, where the Longhorns fell down 1-0 before returning the favor with two goals in the opening 10 minutes of the second half. You have to be methodical, you have to be disciplined, you can t allow yourself to get frustrated, Kelly said. The longer a team stays in it, then (bad) things can happen. The story of Friday s second half was much of the same, with Texas controlling the pace, but Rio Grande resisting the waves of attacks. Freshman midfielder and forward Haley Berg posed a major threat to the Vaquero defense throughout the course of the game, despite never delivering a goal directly. It gets frustrating obviously, for everyone, Berg said. But we know that if we just keep going, (a goal) is going to happen no matter what. Texas numerous scoring chances never translated into goals in regulation. Despite leading Rio Grande Valley in shots 28 5, both teams entered overtime scoreless. Friday s overtime ending mirrored last week s victory over Northeastern, except on this occasion, sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen finished the game. Hintzen s left-footed strike from the right corner of the 18-yard box sealed the undefeated nonconference streak for Texas, giving the Longhorns a 1-0 victory. The burnt orange will next take the field on Aug. 22 as they take on Iowa State to begin conference play. Kickoff from Austin will be at 7:00 p.m.

106 Overtime winner earns Texas its best start in program history Published on September 10, 2017 By Dalton Phillips The Daily Texan Texas keeps on climbing. The team improved to 7 0 for the first time in program history, rolling past then-no. 25 Colorado on Friday before dispatching Northeastern in a high-octane overtime thriller on Sunday afternoon. Redshirt freshman forward Cydney Billups stamped her mark on Texas soccer with her first career goal on Sunday, netting a walkoff winner in overtime to defeat Northeastern 3-2 and keep the record perfect. The score marked the first overtime game-winner at home for Texas since Northeastern is a tremendous team. That is a quality squad, head coach Angela Kelly said. It took every ounce of us to win that match today. The Huskies took advantage of a free kick from 18 yards to go up early on the orange and white. A high ball from junior midfielder Valentina Soares Gache sailed just past the outstretched fingertips of Texas sophomore goalie Nicole Curry. After three consecutive shutouts, Texas found itself down 1-0 heading into the locker room at the half. The Longhorns had netted six shots on goal in the opening period, all six stopped short by the Northeastern goalkeeper. We rose to the challenge and we grew, Kelly said. At halftime I told the squad I was excited, that we were going to learn something about ourselves this match, and the next 45 minutes or so was going to teach us. Freshman forward Emily Strouphauer was the first to answer for Texas. On a tough angle from the right side, Strouphauer fired from 14 yards out through the legs of a teammate to tie the game. Five minutes later, a handball in the box gave junior midfielder Katie Glenn a chance to reclaim the lead off of a penalty kick. A dagger in the left corner did just that. That (left side) is always my go-to, Glenn said. But Northeastern would not be deterred. Three minutes after Texas went up, senior midfielder Hannah Lopiccolo scored her first point of the match on a tip in from a long cross to even the score 2-2. From there Glenn got an excellent look off of a free kick from 18 yards out. But the chip sailed high and the game went into overtime, where Billups clinched the win for her team.

107 It was really exciting, and I don t think I could have done it without the support of my teammates, Billups said. And I was just looking to clean up everything that happened at the top of the goal and top of the six, and Katie s ball came right to me. Sunday s victory came off of the heels of a dominant 3-0 performance over Colorado two days earlier. Friday s game was slated as a slower, grinding matchup. Colorado hadn t allowed a goal in any of its six previous games, and Texas had only given up two. But by the 25-minute mark, the score was 2-0 in favor of the Longhorns. Later in the second half, sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen put the final nail in the coffin with a goal from 13 yards to earn the game s final score. By the final buzzer, the Longhorns cruised to a comfortable victory. I think everyone is on the same page we want to win, Adams said. We want to keep moving forward. We want to have a winning season and make the Big 12 tournament because we didn t do that last year. So we have a target on our back and we want to show the world what we can do.

108 An Unprecedented Start to 2017 for Texas Soccer by Brian Davis, Texas Associate Media Relations Director 6-0. The best start in program history. In 23 previous years of Texas soccer, not a single UT team has ever managed to start a season off more successfully than this 2017 edition of the Longhorns. However, some previous incarnations of the Burnt Orange & White did come oh so close. The 2008 Longhorns beat one rated foe in No. 25 Louisville on the way to christening the year at 5-0 before suffering a scoreless tie in their sixth match against Arizona State. Texas dropped its 2011 season-opener to Loyola Marymount before rattling off five consecutive victories over unranked teams. Just three seasons ago, head coach Angela Kelly s third UT squad managed an unbeaten mark over its initial six matches with ties against Arizona State and No. 25 Arkansas. Of course, every season certainly isn t built the same. The opponents and schedule difficulty are always different, injuries can crop up at any time, travel or weather can factor in and there are key graduation losses to replace as well as youth and inexperience to manage. Regardless, through six matches, the 2017 Texas soccer team has put together all the pieces to an undefeated puzzle that no other Longhorns squad has previously been able to manage. Perhaps even more surprising is that the 6-0 start has occurred in a year where just two seniors are active on a 27-player roster dominated by 18 freshmen and sophomores. In fact, to this point, six of Texas 11 total goals, nine of 13 total assists and 21 of 35 total points have been tallied by players from those two classes. I believe this start is the byproduct of investment, Kelly said. Investment in the offseason. Investment in perseverance through times when they didn't get results (over the past few seasons). Just a complete buy-in from the entire squad throughout this entire preseason and now three weeks into the year. Ever since I've been here at Texas, there's never been a result that's been from a lack of effort. We've always given whatever a hundred percent of ourselves looked like. I think the difference this season so far is that we now have a lot of depth. We have a lot of talented players, and we're paying greater attention to detail. When you put all of those things together these types of things can happen. Types of things like the one that happened on Friday night (Sept. 8) at Mike A. Myers Stadium as Kelly s youthful UT group made its first major 2017 statement, seemingly putting it all together during an impressive 3-0 victory over a nationally-ranked Colorado team that entered the match having not allowed

109 a single goal over almost 608 minutes of playing time this season. The three-goal output marked the most by any Texas soccer team against a ranked opponent in almost seven years. I thought we had good composure against Colorado, Kelly said. We were able to play positively out of pressure and move for one another. That's something we've been working on. Connectivity. Mobility. Those are all aspects of a quality squad, and I think our movement was good. I think (the result) could have been even better, but that's exciting. It s a credit to the players. They put in the work. When you put in the work, those are the types of results this program should expect. Sometimes, the hardest part for a young team is learning how to win. With six positive results out of six to begin the 2017 campaign, the Longhorns have quickly shown they are indeed learning and appear to know exactly what to credit for their early success. (This start) is historic, junior midfielder Katie Glenn said. It's something that hasn t been done at Texas before. We've worked really hard up until this point and everything we've been working for and competing for has been paying off. I think we're just a team this year. On and off the field, everyone has the same mentality. We're all on the same page, and we're all wanting to win. We just came out strong the first couple of games, and that's been helping us maintain our momentum, rather than picking it up as we go along. We're off to a good start and we just want to keep it rolling. When we came here on the first day of preseason, I think we all had the same mentality, junior forward Alexa Adams said. We started off stronger. We didn't have to go through a couple of games in the season to figure out how to work with each other. I think we started that off the first day, and that's what's helped us get off to this good start. We have to come out and compete every single day at practice. We're making each other better by having competition in practice and putting ourselves into tough situations so we can translate that to the field on game day. I think the secret so far this season is team chemistry, sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen said. I think this year s team is a lot closer than last year s. I also think coming out every practice and giving 100% and just competing is a big piece as well. Of course, a six-match sample represents barely one-third of a collegiate soccer regular season, so anything is certainly possible the rest of the way. The Longhorns clearly understand and embrace that knowledge, with Kelly and her players, despite enjoying their early successes, refusing to look very far down the road. I think for us, the biggest match is always our next match, Kelly said. We schedule our out-ofconference matches to include teams such as Rice, California, North Texas or Colorado to get work against the different styles of play that we're expecting to see throughout the season. Some of the matches are on the road, and some of those are at home. That's all on purpose. We have a tremendous conference in the Big 12, and our non-conference matches help prepare us for what we might see in the league. The real season to me is conference play. That's what excites me about our results thus far this season. We've

110 been able to get those results against some really high-quality opponents, whether on the road or at home, and against completely different playing styles. I think the secret to keeping this going is just taking it one match at a time, Hintzen said. We're not worried about two matches ahead. It's about what's in front of us and treating every team we play as if they re the No. 1 team in the nation. Up next for the Longhorns in the one match at a time rotation will be another stout challenge against defending Colonial Athletic Association champion Northeastern (5-2) slated for 1 p.m. CT on Sun., Sept. 10, at Mike A. Myers Stadium.

111 Soccer Longhorns soccer team remains undefeated with win over Colorado Posted September 8th, 2017 Cat Vasquez American-Statesman Staff The Texas Longhorns soccer team moved to 6-0 for the first time in school history as they topped No. 25 Colorado 3-0 at Myers Stadium Friday night. Katie Glenn, Alexa Adams and Cyera Hintzen each scored in the win. Adams and Hintzen each had an assist as well. Haley Berg made plays for Texas as she helped set up two goals for the Longhorns. The Buffaloes hadn t allowed a goal all season but ended up allowing two in the first 25 minutes against the Horns. It s just a credit to the players, head coach Angela Kelly said in a Texas press release. They ve been working so hard in training. They re doing the right things on and off the field. It really pleases me that they get this small reward, but our next match is Sunday. Texas hasn t allowed a goal in 349 minutes and 11 seconds of playing time. The win Friday made it three straight clean sheets for the Longhorns. The win was the first against a ranked opponent at home since They defeated No. 16 Texas Tech 1-0 in overtime that year. Glenn started things off for Texas as she converted from 18 yards away in the 14th minute. Adams doubled the lead on a tap in from eight yards away in the 25th minute. The Longhorns went up three goals just after halftime as Hintzen scored from 15 yards out in the 48th minute. The loss dropped the Buffaloes on the season. In addition to providing scoring opportunities for the Longhorns, Berg took four shots of her own to lead Texas. Hintzen and Glenn each had two shots apiece as Texas outshot Colorado Five of Texas shots were on goal to just two for the Buffaloes. Nicole Curry wasn t tested much, making just two saves on the night for the Longhorns.

112 Soccer Texas Sports Notebook: Newcomers pace soccer team to an undefeated start Posted August 31st, 2017 Danny Davis American-Statesman Staff While Texas football players host Maryland on Saturday, you ll find many of their fellow UT studentathletes on the West Coast. Texas volleyball and Texas soccer both are in California this weekend. The volleyball team is set to play three matches at a tournament hosted by the University of San Diego. Meanwhile, the soccer squad has scheduled games at Cal and Sacramento State. The soccer team will pack an unblemished record for its road trip. After missing the Big 12 tournament last season, Texas is 4-0 for the first time since No one really wants to come in last. That s not the way we here at Texas like to do things, sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry said. We want to come in with an attitude of we re here to win. This fall, Texas was expected to improve on the record it posted in Twenty-four of last year s 28 goals were scored by players who are back on the roster. Forward Mikayla Flores, who was the team s second-leading scorer in 2015, also has returned to the starting lineup after being sidelined by a knee injury. Additionally, the Longhorns have been boosted by their newcomers. Four of UT s seven goals have been scored by new additions. Haley Berg and Emily Strouphauer, who are two of the team s nine freshmen, are responsible for three of those goals. Boston College transfer Amber Stearns scored against Western Kentucky. Curry, who did not play last year, has recorded two shutouts. (Texas coach Angela Kelly) recruited a really good class, junior midfielder Katie Glenn said. I think everyone just came prepared to play and to compete against each other. I think they ve done really well. Cal, ranked 25th in the United Soccer Coaches poll, will provide Texas with its toughest test to date. After this weekend, UT will have only three matches remaining before its conference opener against Iowa State on Sept. 22. There s always room for improvement and to get better, but starting off this year 4-0 has really motivated us and given us confidence, Glenn said. I think we ll be ready once conference comes.

113 Water balloon fight keeps soccer team refreshed and relaxed Published on August 25, 2017 By Dalton Phillips Texas gathered at center field Sunday for a group huddle and team photo. All smiles and celebration after a second-straight victory at Mike A. Myers Stadium. Around them, staff members slid four large blue bins into place like markers for an impromptu drill. No one on the team knew what was about to happen. They told us after the game, Go get something out of the bins, junior midfielder Kayra Dollas said. And so everyone after the huddle ran to the bins. The team broke out in all directions. The lids came off. In an instant, a flurry of water balloons filled center field, offering cool relief from the afternoon sun. Screams of surprise and disbelief rose from the stadium as half a dozen players ran for cover. Others members grabbed balloons of their own and joined the fight. No one was safe, coaches included. I was standing, and (Angela) was actually ducking underneath me, Dollas said. After the fight, the bright remnants littered the pitch like confetti. The balloons marked a celebration not of victory, but of teamwork. I think they were really proud of us and they wanted us to have a little fun and celebrate, even though it was kind of cruel, freshman forward Emily Strouphauer said. But we enjoyed it a lot. A family birthday pulled Strouphauer away from the scrum, but she said, If I were in that pack, I probably would be been throwing them at my teammates. Kelly said the unusual post-game activities provide an extra spark to the team. She acknowledged the grind of a college season especially for Texas freshman and the need to keep things light. And in a schedule which revolves around six days a week of soccer, any chance to let loose is a welcome one. The players they re so young, and have a heightened sense of awareness, and everything is new, Kelly said. It s real, they re here. So we always try to find ways to take off the load a little bit. Because ultimately they are playing this game because they ve loved it their whole lives, and we don t want them to miss opportunities to be able to take a deep breath and find the joy in it as well.

114 Soccer Texas Sports Notebook: Another knee surgery behind her, Mikayla Flores returns to the pitch Posted August 24th, 2017 Danny Davis American-Statesman Staff No, Texas forward Mikayla Flores wasn t about to give up soccer. Since July of 2014, Flores has torn the anterior cruciate ligament in both of her knees. She s had three knee surgeries. Flores admitted last week that even her doctor advised her to give up the sport. Sorry, Doc. I ve loved this game since I was four, said Flores, who is back in UT s starting line-up. I m not going to stop now just because I ve had a minor setback a couple of times. Flores is a pre-med major entering her fourth year on campus. On UT s roster, though, she is a redshirt sophomore who is applying for a medical hardship. Flores suffered an ACL injury in her right knee just before her arrival at Texas, so she was sidelined during her first year. Flores returned to become UT s second-leading scorer in 2015, but she tore the ACL in her left knee 22 minutes into the first match of Texas 2016 season. Flores had an additional surgery on her right knee in the spring of Flores said Texas coaching and training staff did a good job of handling her latest rehab. She even became a mentor in rehab to junior Alexa Adams, who also suffered a knee injury last season. (Adams still led UT with her five goals). Flores insists she now feels like she didn t have three surgeries in three years. I m just going to take the opportunity that I have, and I m going to keep on playing, Flores said. I don t even think about it on the field. I don t play scared, I m just here for my team and I m here to win. Flores started in Texas 2-1 and 2-0 wins over Rice and Western Kentucky this past weekend, and she registered two shots on goal. Recruited out of La Verne, Calif., Flores has recorded three goals and four assists during her short yet lengthy stay in Austin. Flores says she thinks she is back to being the player she once was. When later asked the same question, UT coach Angela Kelly added and some.

115 When you sit out, it s an interesting dynamic. Yes, it s unfortunate, but you get an education in the game, Kelly said. She s a tremendous leader by example. As she s maturing and becoming more educated in the game, she s becoming more of a leader on the field.

116 Freshman forward shines in season opener Published on August 19, 2017 By Dalton Phillips It didn't take long for Haley Berg to make her mark on the Longhorns season opener on Friday night. The freshman forward earned her first goal 25 seconds into her collegiate debut on a long cross and soft pass inside the box, setting the tone as Texas claimed a 2-1 victory over Rice at Mike A. Myers Stadium. I didn t know when it (the first goal) was going to come, only that it was going to come eventually. I m just glad it was the first game, Berg said. We knew we had to come out with a hard mentality. And even from the kickoff, we knew Rice was going to be a really hard opponent. So we started off fast and Cyera (Hintzen) had a great cross and (Mikayla Flores) was right there. She laid it off and just made it easy for me. The goal marked the quickest in Texas soccer history since a 10-second score in The early boost let the Longhorns control the pace for much of the remaining match, leading to a second goal before halftime from the sophomore Hintzen to give the squad a commanding 2-0 lead. A fast goal always sets the standard for how you re going to play throughout the game, sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Curry said. It allows the whole team to bring out the energy and keep fighting. Rice favored a break-heavy offense on Friday, trying to get their forwards out and ahead of a stifling Texas defense. And despite four offsides calls many of which came early as the Owls looked to answer the early goal Rice got several 1-on-1 looks in the first half, leading to several narrow saves from Curry. It wasn t until after the break that Rice cut into the Texas lead. A last-second redirect from midfielder Lianne Mananquil eight yards out rolled past a diving Curry to make it a onepossession game at the 60-minute mark. They got in behind us more than I would have liked, but we can solve that, head coach Angela Kelly said. There are a couple of tweaks that we can make so that it's not as disruptive of a style and cleaning the ball up and getting down the field. We'll talk to our group about what needed to happen there, and we'll organize and move forward. But no more goals would scoot past Curry after the 60th minute, and Texas began its season 1 0. The Longhorns will now get a one-day break before aiming to get two games over.500 on Sunday as they host Western Kentucky.

117 Texas Soccer s Haley Berg Makes An Immediate Impact by Brian Davis, Associate Media Relations Director 25 seconds. That s all the time it took for freshman Haley Berg to make an impression for the Texas soccer program. With the Longhorns searching for an early spark, during its 2017 season opener against Rice on Fri., Aug. 18 at Mike A. Myers Stadium, Berg wasted absolutely no time in providing it. Off a cross from the left wing by sophomore forward Cyera Hintzen, redshirt sophomore Mikayla Flores tried controlling the pass inside the 18-yard box. The ball instead ricocheted off the La Verne, Calif., native and dropped right at Berg s feet just outside the six. Despite being tightly marked by an Owl defender, the rookie midfielder deftly gained possession, and just 25 ticks into her initial collegiate game, calmly finished her first career goal from seven yards out to make it 1-0. I don't think scoring goals ever gets tiring, Berg said. I think this one will always definitely be up there as one of my favorites because it was my first collegiate goal. I'll always remember it because it was with this team and in my first game. Berg s goal for the Burnt Orange & White has certainly been a long time coming for a player who famously committed to Texas as an eighth grader. In fact, her story caused quite a stir back in 2014 as the New York Times even featured the prolific scorer in a national story on recruiting. Haley s a special player, and I think in our sport, it s really difficult to find a natural goal scorer, Texas head soccer coach Angela Kelly said. She s probably the closest definition to the consummate goal scorer that I ve seen. Her eyes get big in front of the goal, she finds spaces for herself and she s deceptively quick. She trains with a killer instinct, and she puts in a little extra-added focus on how she textures a ball, how she finishes a ball and how she strikes a ball. Putting the ball in the back of the net really means something very special to her.

118 It s apparently extremely special to Berg as the Celina, Texas, native has long been used to ticking the twine, scoring 105 goals over just two seasons for a start-up soccer program at Celina High School and 37 goals during the 2016 campaign for her Elite Clubs National League (ECNL) Solar Chelsea FC squad. That natural goal-scoring ability, and the requisite ability to cause an immediate impact, is what turned the head of Kelly and so many other coaches across the country years ago. It also earned Berg time with both the United States U-18 Women s National Team, where she earned three caps during the 2016 International Cup in Northern Ireland, and as part of the U.S. U-19 Women s National Team roster. Haley is just so composed in front of the goal, Kelly said. She s led the country in scoring for several years (ECNL), and she s in her safe place in front of the goal. It s pretty impressive for a freshman to have the sort of quick impact she had for our team tonight. I think regardless of the year that a player is, we want everyone to take responsibility from the freshman through the senior class. When it s a young player having an impact, it s special. I always knew that she wouldn t miss a beat and she hasn t. And young players making an immediate impact is going to prove especially important for the 2017 edition of the Longhorns as Texas boasts a staggering 18 combined freshmen and sophomores on its roster. We had quite a few freshman that were on the field and contributing tonight, that s exciting, Kelly said. If you just look at our lineup, we re led by the majority of our squad that are sophomores. A few juniors and then the addition of the freshmen, so they re going to get a baptism by fire and they re getting a lot of experience. They re training really hard, and it s a lot of information to digest during the early season. It s a little bit like trying to drink from a fire hose for them at the moment, but I m pleased with how receptive (the young players) are. The exposure to the collegiate game would prove a challenge for any freshman, but for Berg, she s just looking to make an impact whenever she can. I just expected to take my first season game-by-game, Berg said. I didn t know when my first goal was going to come. I was hoping it was going to come eventually, but I m glad it was during the first game. I feel like the goal would have felt the same for me if anyone else had scored it. Whether it was in the first 25 seconds or the last 25 minutes, overall, it's just really exciting. Every goal, no matter when it happens, just pumps you up. Hopefully, it's just the first of many for me at Texas.
