Last Time Out
The Falcons had a tough final two match weekend, as they fell to both New Mexico and San Diego State by multi-goal margins. The final tally against the Lobos was 2-0, while SDSU ran away with four second half goals in a 5-0 decision. These were the first multi-goal defeats in conference play for the Falcons this season.
Opponent Connections
With the two schools sharing the same city limits, it comes as no surprise there are a handful of connections between the two. Two players from each side shared high schools, starting with local products, freshman Micah Larkin for the Falcons and sophomore Jade Odom for the Tigers. Both are Colorado Springs natives, and both attended Pine Creek High School. The other comes from out of state, as Air Force junior Kasey Stavig and CC sophomore Riley Prillwitz are both from Portland, and are former teammates at Sunset High School. Finally, CC senior defender Rachael Martino went to high school on base, attending Air Academy High School.
20th Season in the Mountain West
2018 marks Air Force's 20th season as a member of the Mountain West Conference after being one of its charter members back in 1999. In 19 seasons, Air Force holds a 58-136-19 mark in conference matches.
