Brittain Steiner and Cameron Tucker were involved in multiple goals as No. 8 BYU women's soccer kicked off its season with the annual Blue and White scrimmage on Saturday night at South Field.

"So many girls played well," BYU head coach Jennifer Rockwood said. "In the second half, Cameron (Tucker) showed what she is capable of doing. We have so many options and we just played it mixed and didn't make too many changes."

Steiner and Tucker each had a goal and an assist to lead White to a 3-1 win. Some players switched sides at halftime, and the Cougars showed off their roster for the new season.
