Bella's big intervention on which she was injured - Bella = Gamer 😤@GrustBella // #GoBuffs 📺 Pac-12 Networks pic.twitter.com/iOuQ1xtjON— Colorado Buffaloes Soccer (@CUBuffsSoccer) October 23, 2022
I don't think she was injured. The two players who didn't play yesterday due to injury were Hannah Cardenas and Juliauna Hayward.
I was told by the parent of another player what's up with Hannah C but don't feel that it's appropriate to make it public.
If they don’t play Webb at CB, CU should consider new coaches. It’s been a train wreck back there since Pac-12 play. Like to see more of the younger players, too, with an NCAA bid pretty much out.

Oh well. 1 shot on goal versus 11. 1 corner versus 9. Go back to the beginning of the season and mix up the roster a bit. Get the freshmen a few more minutes.
0-4 loss. Cal's second goal was a back breaker as Bella Grust had saved a PK but didn't hold it. The rest of the team was a step slow in getting to the ball, etc., and thus a Cal player put the rebound across the mouth of the goal for an easy tap in by a teammate.

At least they competed against Stanford. No way to score against a team with five straight clean sheets. Need better team play next year.

2-2 tie. Fair result. Utah was the better team. Next year, CU needs to score in the flow of play as opposed to set pieces.
Something always to keep in mind is that the NCAA RPI significantly underrates and underranks teams from strong conferences and geographic regions. So, teams in the West, playing other teams in the West, are playing opponents who are sigificantly stronger than their ranks indicate. This does not negate assessments of the Buffs’ Pac 12 results, but it does give those results some context.
Fair comment CP, but the team regressed during league play. They played lousy soccer. It wasn’t bad luck. For example, Utah is mediocre, but doubled CU on shots on goal. I assume even the CU coaches feel like they had their best talent ever this year, but played like a bottom feeder. It wasn’t good enough.
