KICKOFF
Utah Soccer holds its annual Power of Pink match this Friday when it hosts Arizona. Kick-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. and can be seen live on the Pac-12 Networks.
NELSON NEXT LEVEL IN NET
Carly Nelson was named the Pac-12 Goalkeeper of the Week on Sep. 24 after a pair of shutouts against Butler and San Diego.
The Ute stopper combined with Utah's defense to blank its last four opponents in non-conference play. This was the longest shutout streak for a Ute defense since the 2006 season (9 games)
The senior from Lindon leads the Pac-12 with 71 saves, seven shutouts and 1342:12 minutes played (11th nationally). She also sits third in the conference with an .835 save percentage
Nelson's 20 career shutouts place her third all-time in Utah history and she needs 26 saves to crack the top five in that category.
This was the 16th Pac-12 weekly award for Utah Soccer and fourth for Nelson
