KU soccer ties Pepperdine

? Kansas sophomore Grace Hagan scored her fourth goal of the season, and the Jayhawks played Pepperdine to a 1-1 draw Sunday in women’s college soccer.

KU completed its nonconference schedule with a 5-3-2 record. Pepperdine went to 4-3-2.

“I’m very happy with how we played and very proud of how the team competed today,” KU coach Mark Francis said. “I like where we’re at as a team right now. We have a lot of people playing really well. Now it’s just about taking that next step on the offensive side of the ball and I think we’ll do some great things in conference play.”

The Jayhawks will open Big 12 play against Texas Tech at 7 p.m. Friday at Rock Chalk Park.
