Women’s soccer picks up draw versus LMU, win over Tennessee to start season

Nowadays, every time senior Zakiya Bywaters or sophomore Ally Courtnall touches the ball, they get double-teamed like no other.

After early offensive success from the duo, opposing teams caught on, making it tough for them to get near the goal, let alone tuck the ball inside of it.

But the Bruins (5-0-1) are anything but a two-woman show, and this weekend was evidence of that.

Contributions from young players led to a 1-1 draw with Loyola Marymount on Friday and a 1-0 win over Tennessee on Sunday.

Sunday’s game against the Lady Vols (5-1-1) was stuck at 0-0 until sophomore forward Rosie White managed to sneak the ball past the hands of Tennessee’s goalkeeper.

The win was made all the more important for No.
