The No. 6 Play Of 2008
In the 50th minute of the match, freshman Jordan Calhoun found the back of the net off an assist by Lindsay Holmes. On the play, Holmes played the ball into the box from about 25 yards out allowing Calhoun to place the ball into the upper right corner of the net past UT goalkeeper Dianna Pfenninger.
The Significance
Holmes' assist to Calhoun put fear into the No. 7 team in the country early in the second half allowing TCU to gain the momentum for the rest of the second period.
