THE BATTALION
Aggies upset Texas, 6-0
Monday, November)’

THE BATTALION
The second-largest crowd to watch a
University of Texas soccer game at Mike A. Myers
Stadium showed up Friday night hoping to see the
No. 7 Longhorns claim their first ever victory
against the No. 14 Texas A&M Aggies.
Instead, the 5,376 fans witnessed senior for
ward Nicky Thrasher score two goals in the first
14 minutes to lead the Aggies to a 6-0 thrashing of
the Big 12 regular season champions.
With the win, A&M (11-3-1, 8-1-1) improved
a
I think that we proved tonight
that we are a top ten team.
— G. Guerrieri
A&M soccer coach
its all-time record to 12-0 against UT (1 1-4, 9-1).
“When we gave up a couple of goals early, we
kind of crashed,” said UT head soccer coach Chris
Petrucelli. “It seemed like everything they hit
went into the goal.”
A&M’s first goal came at the 6:34 mark.
Sophomore midfielder Kristen Strutz passed the
ball to Thrasher as she was running down the left
side of the field. Before any defenders could get
back to help UT sophomore goalkeeper Shay
Wilkerson, Thrasher fired a shot into the top right
comer of the net.
Just seven minutes later, Thrasher scored her
second goal by putting a move on Wilkerson, who
came up to meet her directly in front of the goal.
Sophomore defender Adrienne Dillard got the
assist by heading a Wilkerson goal kick to Thrasher
who was behind UT’s defense.
A&M soccer head coach G. Guerrieri said that
after Thrasher scored those quick goals, his mid
field and defense took over the game.
“We had some misreads early on in the game
and we were fortunate that Nicky was hot
because it took us awhile to get sorted out in the
midfield,” Guerrieri said. “Once (midfielders)
Andrea Starns and Michelle Royal started to see
what we were wanting them to do, that is when
we got the game under control.”
Freshman defender Amanda Burke scored
A&M’s third goal by taking advantage of a UT
misplay of the ball. After stealing the ball, she
immediately launched the scoring shot over the
defense from more than 30 yards out.
A&M took a 4-0 lead into the half after fresh
man forward Linsey Johnson added another goal.
Johnson used her speed to take the assist from
Thrasher, run past the defense and fire the ball
across to the opposite comer of the net.
With the goal, Johnson tied the freshman record
of 13 goals set in 1993 by Jamie Csizmadia.
In the second half, UT put freshman Alex
Gagarin in at goalkeeper but the Aggies continued
to expand their lead.
Only 2:30 into the second half, Strutz lofted
a shot over Gagarin from about 12 yards out.
Both teams pulled many of their starters mid
way through the second half with the game out of
reach for the Longhorns.
With 28 minutes left in the game, senior midfield
er Cameron Chom was able to score her first goal of
the season on an assist from freshman forward Emma
Smith. Both Chom and Smith did not start.
The six goals scored by A&M equaled the com
bined total UT had given up to the rest of the Big 12.
“I think that we proved tonight that we are a top
ten team in the nation and we are going to go into
the Big 12 tournament playing like a top ten team
in the nation,” Thrasher said.
A&M’s next game will be in the first round of
the Big 12 tournament. The Aggies claimed the
third seed behind UT and Nebraska and will face
sixth-seeded Oklahoma at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday.
