TALAHASSEE, Fla. – In a match-up of wits and athleticism, the University of Colorado came out the victor, defeating No. 19 Brighman Young University 2-1 in the NCAA Women’s Soccer Championship Round of 32 here Thursday.

Behind first-half goals by sophomore Emily Paxton and junior Carly Bolyard, the Buffaloes took down the Cougars to advance the Sweet 16. This is CU’s second trip to the third round of NCAAs – the Buffs advanced to the Sweet 16 in 2006 to post the program’s best NCAA finish.

Second upset win in a row in the postseason against a ranked team. Awesome, and congrats!
 
This is just HUGE! What a run!! Now comes an FSU squad from by far the toughest conference.

I think the big advantage CU has had in the first 2 games was playing teams that hadn't been as battle tested against top competition the past month and a half. That advantage goes out the window at FSU. This would be a huge upset if our girls could pull it off.

Yep, as magnificent as making the Sweet 16 and defeating two top 20 teams in the process is, it was a major advantage to not be facing ACC or B1G teams.
