Carbon unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-pitch advantage in their season opener. While the 2-2 score might suggest a draw, it was the Uintah Utes who were credited with the victory on Tuesday. The Uintah Utes got it done in the shootout by posting three goals to the Carbon Dinos' one. The result was an unpleasant reminder to Carbon of the 4-0 defeat they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in August of 2022.
Malia Smith and Naomi Smith scored both of Carbon's goals, which were season-firsts for both players.
Carbon wasted no time getting back out on the pitch and has already played their next match, an 8-1 win against St. Joseph on the 7th. Uintah has also already played their next game (against Judge Memorial Catholic), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
