It Feels Good to Win. Texas outlasts Colorado State Rams 13-7 in front of a packed Friday Night Crowd.
The No-Doubter MVP of this game for our Texas Longhorns was #12 the Goalie, Mr. Cian Levine. This man was stone-cold impenetrable all game and especially during the 1st half. The Texas Goalie was stuffing attackman right at the crease's doorstep, like a cement block. He even drew a yellow-flag man-up penalty on a clear and allowed very few goals despite ample CSU on-cage shot attempts. Cian was an imperative ball-handler in breaking the press and clearing the ball. Literarily the only thing Mr. Goalie Levine did NOT do this specific game was score a goal. He carried us the 1st half. My fellow alumni agreed upon our goalie's all-star prowess and nodded in unison toward halftime.
Physically our opponent Colorado State was more of a quick and speedy team. The Rams appeared less burly in physique and shorter in stature. I think Texas's bigger players, size and depth eventually wore the CSU Rams down in the 4th quarter.
Caven Field Ambiance Review; This Friday night game under the powerful lights was packed and peacefully crowded. Dare I say the most populated crowd I've ever seen @ Caven Field for a Horns home game. The silver bleachers were full and overflowing onto the sides. People were freestyle sitting wherever. I even saw a picnicking fan group. It warmed my heart to see so many people and fans so pleased and happy to watch this game, action sport and home team! Did the 90 second on field shot clocks break down = Yes. Did the Big Scoreboard Work this game = Nope. Was it still enjoyed by all humans in attendance = Yes. Was it a perfect early spring weather night in Austin, Texas = Yes.
Scores I Jotted down:
Texas 1- CSU 0
Texas 1 - CSU 1
Texas 2- CSU 1
Texas 3 - CSU 1
Texas 4- CSU 2
Texas 5 - CSU 2
Texas 5 - CSU 3
Texas 6 CSU 3
Texas 7 CSU 4
Texas 8 - CSU 4
Texas 8 CSU 5
Texas 8 CSU 6
.....At this point the game was getting snug and CSU was chirping with some visitor sideline energy.
But NOT tonight, Texas grabbed the game by the horns and went on a drowning 5-0 Scoring run to close out the game in the 4th quarter. Final Score Texas 13 - Colorado State Rams 7.
Perhaps a Team Healing type of Mid-Season Win. --George Vance McGee Feb. 27th. 2026.
