Last Time Out:
The Cowgirls celebrated senior goalkeeper
Peyton Greener prior to today's game celebrating the four-year player's career in a Cowgirl uniform.
Colorado Christian wasted no time getting on the board five minutes into the game the Cougars got on the board. The Cowgirls defense was strong after giving up the early but good ball movement by Colorado Christian got them on the board once again in the 42nd minute to take a 2-0 lead into the half.
Seven minutes into the second half Colorado Christian got their third goal of the game on a corner kick to take a 3-0 lead.
That would be all the scoring in the game as the Cowgirls would fall.
