An ugly win Friday night kept the New Mexico women’s soccer team undefeated in Mountain West Conference play through the first three games.
Forward Ruth Bruciaga scored the game’s only goal in UNM’s 1-0 victory over Nevada at the UNM Soccer Complex, the Lobos’ first action at home in nearly a month. The win puts UNM with three straight wins to open conference play.
But it wasn’t pretty. UNM had difficulty with its decision-making in the attacking third of the field, head coach Heather Dyche said. Though pleased to come away with the win, Dyche said the team needs to shore some things up.
