There’s a common saying that sports bring “the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.”
At the UNM Soccer Complex in Albuquerque, the Mountain West Conference Final had all of it and then some.
After a game-tying goal with four seconds left in regulation, San Diego State women’s soccer (8-3) lost 3-2 in overtime to the University of New Mexico Lobos (10-1), denying them the Mountain West Conference title and ending their regular season.
In the 95th minute, UNM was able to get a ball on a crossing pattern inside the penalty box. Freshman goalkeeper Alexa Madueno was able to deflect it out but was forced off of her line.
