UW heads south to take on Pilots
September 29, 2006
The Washington women's soccer team travels to Portland, Ore., to take on the fourth-ranked Pilots tonight at Merlo Field.[HTML_REMOVED]
[HTML_REMOVED]"I think keeping the ball is important and just being able to be patient and skillful in possession," Husky coach Lesle Gallimore said. "We showed a lot of that in the last two games, especially against BYU."[HTML_REMOVED]
[HTML_REMOVED]The key for a Washington victory is simple -- finish.[HTML_REMOVED]
[HTML_REMOVED]"Clearly, creating and finishing more of our chances has to happen for us to get results," Gallimore said. "We did a good job of possessing the ball last weekend, and we need to keep doing that. Despite some really key injuries, the players that have been on the field have worked really hard and done a good job."[HTML_REMOVED]
[HTML_REMOVED]Those key injuries include the loss of forward Shuree Hyatt, who has been sidelined with a leg injury since the UW dropped a 2-1 decision to Ohio State on Sept. 17. [HTML_REMOVED]
[HTML_REMOVED]But that's no excuse, Gallimore said.[HTML_REMOVED]
[HTML_REMOVED]"Every team, at this halfway point, is going to have some players that are hurt," Gallimore explained. "I don't think we'll have Shuree Hyatt back by Friday, but hopefully in the next couple weeks she'll be ready to go for Pac-10 play."[HTML_REMOVED]
