BOX SCORE

RIVERSIDE, Calif. – The Aggies traveled to Riverside, Calif. for the regular season finale against California Baptist for a chance to cement themselves as the #3 seed in the upcoming WAC Women's Soccer Tournament.

CBU got out in front early with a goal by Elizabeth Oglesby on a second attempt after her first was sent back by Makenna Gottschalk. It only took 2:48 for the Aggies to answer the late first half goal with a goal of their own in the final seconds of the opening half. 

The score came off the head of Blakley Edgar after the Aggies were awarded with a free kick in the corner. Bianca Chacon and Brooke Shultz later connected for the second and final goal of the match to give NM State the 2-1 victory.
