Weber State stomps Aggies

The Utah State men’s club soccer team fell 7-0 to Weber State at Chuck and Gloria Bell Field to begin the season on a rough note on Saturday.

“They played really well and rolled over us,” said Utah State head coach Sherri Dever. “Weber State brought a great team to Logan that was in shape, been playing together for the last six months, as well as having several games under their belt.”

The Aggie team had one day of practice to prepare for the Wildcats after finishing tryouts Thursday and felt the ill effects from the get-go against a well prepared group from Ogden.

Devers said she is looking to use the game as motivation for the team as it enters a 2-week practice period, continuing to build unity and get in shape for the season before the next game.

“The team was nothing short of embarrassed,” Dever commented. “Things will get better for us. Still, it wasn’t the way we would have liked to start out the season.”

The Aggies will hit the field Sept. 21 against BYU in Provo and host a doubleheader with Westminster and Utah at home Saturday.
