Utah Women’s Soccer Falls 2-1 to Utah Tech in Narrow Defeat

Despite early control, the Utes could not convert chances, allowing the Trailblazers to clinch a late winner.

The University of Utah women's soccer team entered Sunday night's matchup against Utah Tech with a clear intent to dominate, controlling possession early and generating a flurry of chances.

Shannon Davidson broke the deadlock with her first goal of the 2026 campaign, but the lead was short‑lived as Utah Tech equalised before halftime and ultimately seized the win in the 70th minute.

Despite out‑shooting their opponents, the Utes struggled to convert, finishing with just a single shot on target in the second half while Utah Tech posted a season‑high 26 attempts, 11 of which were on target.

Abby Affleck was the most active attacker for Utah, firing off six attempts, while Anna Solomon made four saves, matching her season‑high as she kept the score within reach.

Looking Ahead

The Utes will travel to Eugene next Thursday to face the Oregon Ducks, kicking off at 7 p.m. local time, hoping to rebound from the narrow loss and improve their 2‑2‑1 record.
