PROVO, Utah — Baylor soccer took a draw against BYU, 3-3, on Thursday night as the Bears saw goals from three different players.

The Cougars (6-5-5, 4-2-3) got on the board first with an Erin Bailey goal in the 22nd minute. It remained a 1-0 match in favor of BYU through the break. Tyler Isgrig drove in her sixth goal of the season, taking the rebound on a Skye Leach blocked shot off a corner to tie things up in the 48th minute.

Baylor took a quick lead, scoring two more goals within three minutes of each other. Hallie Augustyn netted her fourth goal of the season in the 64th minute on her own deflected shot. Isgrig served up a pass for Ashley Merrill in the 66th for the senior's fifth score of the season.

The Cougars didn't let up, however, as Allie Fryer found a goal in the 85th to cut the lead to one and a handball in the box set up a penalty shot for the BYU equalizer.

Isgrig almost secured the win for the Bears in the 87th but her shot sailed over the crossbar.

Baylor goalkeeper Azul Alvarez recorded a career high 10 saves, eight of which came in the first half.

The Bears will head over to Salt Lake City to face Utah at 2 p.m. CT Sunday.
