WOMEN'S SOCCER: Freshman forward Lauren Anderson was named the Mountain West Conference Offensive Player of the week. She tallied six points, including two goals and two assists, in the Cougars' two wins last weekend.

The Cougars are at home for two games this week, facing off against UNLV on Thursday at 7 p.m. and San Diego State on Saturday at 8 p.m.

To celebrate its 5-0 victory over Utah, the BYU women's soccer team is holding an open practice today Tuesday from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m., at Haws Field (just west of the Indoor Practice Facility).

Ten fans will be selected to participate in a shootout at the end of practice versus the BYU goalkeepers, with the winner receiving six reserved tickets to an upcoming home game.
