From Coach Busby after Washington
"I have to give credit to Washington for playing a great match and finishing their chances. I thought we battled in the second half but the game is 90 minutes and we need to bring that intensity every time we step on the field. We'll learn from our mistakes and make sure we're prepared to give a complete performance against Army this Friday. I can't wait for the opportunity to showcase our talent in front of our home crowd."
Key Returners
- Air Force returns it's top goal-scorer in Faith Lee, who led the Falcons in goals (5) and assists (3) in 2021.

-Kayla Milford, named Team MVP for the second-consecutive season in 2021, will be charged with leading the Falcons back line this fall.
-Goalkeeper Cammi Bych, who started all 18 games in net for the Falcons a season ago, is slated to provide veteran leadership yet again as the starting keeper.
-Defender Hannah Johnson, named to the Mountain West All-Newcomer Team in 2021, is projected to again anchor the Falcons defensive efforts.
-Jenna Rubidoux, Stella Rubidoux, Jennifer McFadden, Jordi Ives and Cassi Bych all return to play significant roles for the Falcons after all accumulating over 600 minutes of playing time a season ago.
