The San Diego State University Aztecs defeated Colorado College in the Semi Finals of the Mountain West Conference Championship on Friday night for the second straight season. The Aztec game was delayed by thirty minutes as the previous game San Jose State vs. New Mexico went into overtime. This time the Aztecs were able to score two goals to avoid another penalty kick decided contest.

However, those fans in attendance had to be thinking no not another overtime game. 70 minutes into the match the game was tied thanks to the effort of the Aztec Defense which was led by goalie Melanie Vaughn. Vaughn would finish the game with a total of two saves on two opportunities. Good for her 9th shutout this season and the 26th shutout of her career.

The Aztec offense would score two goals in the final 20 minutes of the game. Zsuria Phare put the Aztecs on the board in the 70th minute. That was the end of the game for Colorado College who seemed to get gassed as the Aztecs continued to attack the net. The second and final goal for the Aztecs came in the 84th minute by Dani  DeRosa. The Aztecs held on for a 2-0 win over Colorado College. The Aztecs out shot CC 15 to 8.
