Last week, the Aztecs fell at home against Boise State and Utah State. Emma Fuller scored for SDSU against the Broncos on Thursday with assists from Victoria Miller and Katie Senn.
Colorado State won its first six matches of the season and earned a No. 25-ranking on September 9. The Rams are 3-2-2 in conference play but are 6-0-1 overall when playing at CSU Soccer Field this season. Last week, CSU lost at Fresno State before winning at San Jose State. The Rams are 4-2-1 this year against common opponents with the Aztecs, who are 1-2-4 against those teams.

Wyoming won five of its nine non-conference matches. Last week, the Cowgirls beat Colorado College and tied at Grand Canyon, giving the Lopes their first draw of the year.
