BOULDER, Colo. – The Oregon State women's soccer team lost, 3-0 to Colorado Sunday afternoon at Prentup Field.
 
Colorado (11-3, 5-0 Pac-12) dominated the first 45 minutes out shooting Oregon State, 9-1. Junior Bella Geist saw four shots on frame and nabbed a pair of saves. OSU's (5-7-2, 0-5 Pac-12) lone shot in the first half was wide right, taken by junior Emma Jones.
 
The Buffs started their scoring in the 17th minute, after Sarah Kinzer tallied her fourth goal of the season after finding the top-right corner, just out of reach of Geist. Colorado added to its lead in the 25th minute after Taylor Kornieok fired a shot into the bottom-left corner of the frame to give the Buffs a, 2-0 advantage. Kornieok's goal was her 10th of the season as she leads the Buffaloes and the Pac-12 in goals.
