USAF ACADEMY – The Falcon men's soccer team broke even in the Mountain West Conference opener against Utah Tech, tying the Trailblazers at one, Saturday evening at Cadet Soccer Stadium.

After a scoreless first half, Utah Tech (1-6-2) was the first to strike (59') as Griffin Valladares fired one in past Hunter Anderson from 25 yards out.

Less than 10 minutes later Menes Ajyeman fired off a shot that deflected off a UT defender straight into the possession of Logan Zaa who finished with the right foot to the left side of the frame. The goal marks two for Zaa this season.

The Falcons attempted 13 shots on the match, four shots coming on goal. Ajyeman and Tucker Kern took three shots apiece while Andrei Bulankou, Attila Toth, Xidane Espinoza, and Zaa accounted for the shots on target.

Doran Farrell and Bulankou were exceptional in their defensive efforts, clocking 90 minutes of action each. Freshman goalkeeper Hunter Anderson made a pair of athletic saves to keep the Falcons in the fight.

Next up, Air Force hits the road for a mid-week matchup with UC Davis on Wednesday, September 30 in Davis, California. Action is scheduled for 7pm PT.
