CPD West: Utah vs Arizona State: Best Match of the Early CPD Season

Jumping from D2 to the College Premier Division, few thought Arizona State would be a force.  But with the help of two new players from the Sun Devils' football team and a roster that has matured, ASU has proven to be a contender.  The Utes discovered this when they went into ASU's soccer stadium and were met with a staunch defense and powerful running from the home team.  Unfortunately for the Sun Devils, they too often took penalty kicks and missed them instead of trying to hammer in a decisive try.  Should be a great season for both teams.
