Freshman Julia Dyche tacked on the second of two goals for Texas, the first of her career, in the 68th minute of the Longhorns' win over Stephen F. Austin. The play started with sophomore Kelsey Shimmick dribbling down the right side toward the corner. Shimmick crossed it back toward the top of the box and found the feet of Dyche, who sent it on the ground to the back of the net past Ladyjacks keeper Morgan Glick.
