COLORADO SPRINGS -- The BYU women's soccer team opened up conference play strong with a 5-1 victory over Air Force, Thursday. The Cougars improve to 7-5, 1-0 while the Falcons drop to 5-8, 0-1 on the season.

The Falcons hoped to get their first-ever win against the Cougars as they struck first with a goal three minutes into the game by senior Mary Cholko.

BYU promptly answered the Falcon's challenge with a goal in the 13th minute by junior Annie Hoecherl off a corner kick from All-American Aleisha Cramer Rose. The goal is Hoerchel's second of the season.

Less than a minute later, senior Jeni Viernes notched her fifth goal of the season when she received a pass from junior Jennifer Henry Fielding. Fielding promptly scored off an assist from junior Britney Holman. In less than two minutes, the Cougar attack scored three goals to take a commanding 3-1 to finish the first half.

"It was a great game for us to start conference play," said head coach Jennifer Rockwood. "It was nice to see the scoring being spread around as five different players scored."

In the second half, the Cougars tacked on two goals in the final minutes as freshman Brooke Bowman and junior Lydia Ojuka scored.

BYU outshot Air Force 17-2 in the first period and 12-4 in the second. Sophomore Amanda Gott recorded three saves while the Falcon's Jennifer Monson notched 11 saves.

The Cougars have now won four straight games, including three consecutive on the road, in midst of a six game road swing that spans over 5,700 miles in three weeks.

Up next for BYU is Wyoming Cowgirls at 1 p.m. on Saturday in Laramie. The Cougars are 7-0 all-time against Wyoming. The next home game for the Cougars is against UNLV on Oct. 24. Kick-off is set for 7 p.m.
