Nevada is coming off a weekend where it went 1-1 against Mountain West competition, falling 3-0 to Colorado College but securing a huge 2-1 victory over Air Force in overtime. The Pack now sits at 2-4 in Mountain West play.

Casey Crawford played the role of hero on Sunday, as her second goal of the season proved to be the game-winner in the 100th minute. Following a turnover by the Falcons' keeper, Crawford drilled the ball into the upper right corner of the goal passed the keeper's outstretched hands to give Nevada the victory. Payton Lieb connected on a penalty kick in the first half, the first of the year for Nevada, to give the Pack its first goal on the afternoon.
