LAS CRUCES, N.M. – With 88:19 left in regulation, booted the corner kick nearside for NM State as it sailed over every single player except freshman , who easily headed in the game-winner Friday afternoon. The goal lifted the Aggies past the Cougars, 2-1, minutes after the Chicago State knocked in the equalizer.
Oddly enough, soon after the match ended, Tirado and Rivera were being featured in the second episode of Aggie Profiles. A monthly student-athlete centric television show that gives fans an inside look and get to know the student-athletes here at New Mexico State beyond their sports.
