Broncos Host Aggies for Regular Season Finale

Regular Season Finale: The Blue and Orange will close the regular season in Boise against Utah State on Thursday at 7 p.m., at Boas Soccer Complex. Thursday's match will also be Senior Night and the Broncos' annual Trunk-or-Treat event.

Tournament Scenario: After recording a win against UNLV, the Broncos are guaranteed to finish the regular season no lower than third place in the Mountain West. If Boise State defeats Utah State and San Diego State beats New Mexico, the Broncos will secure a bye and a share at the regular-season title; however, if Boise State and Utah State tie while San Diego State wins, the Broncos will finish second in the conference and secure a bye.

Last Time Out: Senior Genevieve Crenshaw and the Broncos shut out UNLV 1-0 on Oct. 22, marking the 19th clean sheet of Crenshaw's Boise State career, the most in program history. Morgan Padour passed the ball through the UNLV defense to find the feet of Cindy Conner, who ripped a shot that landed in the left side of the net to give the Broncos a 1-0 lead.

Senior Spotlight: Boise State will be honoring its three graduating seniors, Payton McBride, Jocelyn Stephens and Morgan Stone, before kick-off on Thursday.

Scouting the Aggies: Utah State enters the match 11-7-1 overall, with an 8-2 record in conference play, after winning 2-1 against Nevada on Oct. 22. The Aggies have a leg up in the series with a 13-6-4 overall record over the Broncos.

Conference Honors: Boise State goalkeeper Genevieve Crenshaw was named the MW Defensive Player of the Week for the second time this season. The senior made seven saves on eight shots on goal, helping the Broncos record their fourth shutout of the season and second in conference play.

Best in the MW: With their shutout victory against UNLV, the Broncos remain tied for first in MW play with San Diego State. The Broncos' 8-1-1 record in conference play marks their best in program history. Junior Kenzie MacMillan leads the conference in total assists (7), assists per game (0.39), shots (81), shots per game (4.50) and points (25), and is second in points per game (1.39) and tied for second in total goals (9) and goals per game (0.50). Junior Carly Cross is also tied for second in the conference in total goals (9) and goals per game (0.50), while senior Morgan Padour is tied for second in total assists (6) and assists per game (0.33).

Fabulous Freshman: With her goal in the Broncos' 1-0 victory at UNLV, Cindy Conner recorded her third goal of the season and is only the third Bronco this season to have netted multiple goals, behind only Carly Cross (9) and Kenzie MacMillan (9). Conner leads the active freshman roster with three goals and two assists.
