BYU’s second game last weekend was against the University of Southern California Trojans. It was a hard fought game but BYU came up short with an 8 to 2 loss. With our starting goalie injured and two of our key defensive players ill, BYU struggled during the first period, letting in four goals. The second period was much closer with only one goal scored by USC and an equal number of shots on goal between the two teams.  Nick Bartholomew (# 19) finally gave the Cougars hope with a goal assisted by Josh Burkart (#16) and Chris Tuttle (#6). With just over a minute left in the third period, BYU took advantage of a power play and Mio Aura (# 8 ) scored our final goal, again assisted by Josh Burkart (# 16).
