LMU tied it up at the half with a 7-6 advantage in goals in the second quarter.
The third quarter was a defensive battle, as both teams scored just two goals. Air Force would go ahead by two goals with 3:20 to play. But LMU rallied to tie it up. Richards then scored the game-winner.
Brown and senior Jacob Yi led the Falcons with seven points. Yi scored three goals and had four assists. Sophomore Tom Leggett scored four goals and Richards had three.
Junior Luca Smith earned the win in goal for the Falcons with three saves.
