Aztecs overcome two goal deficit capped off by a senior scoring on October senior night

It was only fitting that an Aztec senior would score the crucial goal on senior night at the SDSU Sports Deck.

Senior forward Taylor Moorehead scored in the 87th minute to tie the game and helped the Aztecs (7-10-2, 5-4-2 Mountain West Conference) come back from a 2-0 halftime deficit for her last game on the Mesa. The draw against the conference-leading New Mexico Lobos (12-4-2, 7-2-2 MWC) helped the Aztecs earn the number three seed heading into the Mountain West Conference tournament.

“I thought we were really good today,” head coach Mike Friesen said. “I thought we were the better team on the day and deserved at least a draw, if not a win…but really proud of the response at halftime to come back and tie it up and just the resiliency that we’ve been missing a little bit of throughout the year.
