It likely was a few nerve-racking days for the Colorado women’s soccer team. Monday’s news brought a huge, collective sigh of relief.
The Colorado women’s soccer team will play Texas A&M in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, giving senior Shyra James a chance to reach the program’s all-time goals record.
Those wins pushed CU to a more manageable No. 59 in the RPI, but the Buffs’ NCAA tourney hopes were pushed to the brink after falling behind 2-0 in the first half of the regular season finale on Friday at Utah. But the Buffs rallied with three goals in the second half, with two off the foot of senior Shyra James, who scored the winner in the 89th minute.
Texas A&M went 4-3-3 in the SEC and advanced to the conference semifinals before losing to eventual tournament champ Georgia in the semifinals. The Aggies and Buffs played only one common foe in Washington State, which Texas A&M defeated 3-2 at home on Aug. 20.
