WOMEN'S SOCCER: The Wolverines fell 2-0 to Portland State on Friday afternoon at Clyde Field in Orem in the team's final tuneup before Great West Conference play begins next week.

The Wolverines (1-9-0) hit the road to open conference play in the Great West's inaugural season next Friday at North Dakota and Sunday at South Dakota.

In Friday's loss, the fifth in a row for UVU, the Vikings (5-5-1) got a goal in each half from Dolly Enneking to earn the win. Enneking scored her fifth goal of the season in the 17th minute on an assist from Michelle Hlasnik.. Her second-half goal came on a penalty kick in the 58th minute.

The Wolverines were out-shot 22-11 overall and 11-6 on goal. Down 2-0 midway through the second half, Utah Valley mustered three close attempts but a Katey Turner shot was deflected away by PSU keeper Cris Lewis, Adrienne Schneider's breakaway attempt went wide right and a shot fired by Lauren Bluth hit the crossbar.

Lewis had five saves with the Vikings also picking up a team save while UVU keeper Tasha Bell had eight saves.
