Pepperdine Women’s Soccer fell to No. 19 Brigham Young University with a score of 4-3 Oct. 19 at Tari Frahm Rokus Field.

Freshman midfielder Tatum Wylanda netted two goals — one at the 60:39 mark and the second at the 89:53 mark. Senior midfielder Carlee Giammona converted on a lone goal after the Waves were down 3-0 at that juncture of the game.

The Waves found themselves in an unusual position, as they were outshot 23-7 this game. Through the first five games, the Waves outshot their opponents 100-19, but the Cougars were the aggressors in this game.

The Waves high-powered offense stalled versus BYU and the Cougars took advantage early.

It’s been an up-and-down season for the Waves, who started strong at first, winning their first four games and tying California on Sept. 4.

But after a strong win over San Diego, the Waves registered ties versus Gonzaga and San Francisco and losses against No. 15 Portland and BYU.

Next up for the Waves is a matchup versus Pacific on Oct. 22.
