TAYLORSVILLE, Utah (September 27, 2018) - The No. 16 Salt Lake Community College women's soccer team didn't lose any ground in national polls last weekend, in spite of two tough matches.

The Bruins fell in tough matches last week at No. 10 Snow College, losing 2-0 on Friday and finishing in a 1-1 double-overtime tie on Saturday. The record left Salt Lake's season record at 7-1-1, with a record of 2-1-1 in league play. While there were bright moments and highlights in the tie, last weekend's results gave SLCC an excellent opportunity to look ahead at opportunities for growth, in advance of hosting the College of Southern Nevada in Herriman this weekend.

"Last weekend certainly didn't go how we planned, but I think it gave our team an excellent chance to look inward at opportunities for growth," said SLCC coach Mark Davis. "The results gave us insight that wins can rarely give, and gave us some motivation going into this weekend's matchups against a very good Southern Nevada team."

Through three weekends of league play, Salt Lake sits a half-game behind Snow in the standings, with the next scheduled matchup between the foes coming on Oct. 20 at Zions Bank Stadium. Until then, the Bruins will have to focus their attention on a CSN squad that is just 0-1-1 in league play, with a record of 5-1-1 overall. Southern Nevada's league results come against USU Eastern, with two victories over Las Vegas-area club programs since.

"Our players cannot afford to sleep on this Coyotes squad for one minute," he said. "They are well-coached, well-drilled and acquainted with winning matches in tough environments. These matches will require everything we have."

Salt Lake will host a pair of matches against Southern Nevada, starting with a 1:00 p.m. match on Friday. The Bruins will then play on Saturday at 11:00 a.m. All of the matches will take place at Zions Bank Stadium in Herriman.
