The Mesa State Mavericks finished their season over the weekend with two matches. The Mavericks tied the Colorado Christian Cougars 0-0 and defeated the UCCS Mountain Lions 2-1 in double overtime. Mesa State finished the season 5-10-3 and 3-9-2 in Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference play.

          In Friday's match, the Mavericks and Cougars played to a 0-0 tie. Mesa State outshot the Cougars 25-12 with ten of those coming on goal. The Mavericks had two chances in the second overtime, but Cougar goaltender Liana Signorile made saves on both shots.

          Junior goalkeeper Arielle Harris (Glendale, Ariz.) secured her second shutout of the season. Harris made four saves in the match.

          In Sunday's season finale, Junior Kelly Parkhurst's (Escondido, Calif) goal with 1:39 left gave the Mavericks their fifth win of the season, 2-1. Parkhurst took a shot from about 35 yards out and sailed her shot over the goalie's head for her second goal of the season.

          Earlier in the match, UCCS took an early lead when Jessica Escobedo scored in the 25th minute. Escobedo's shot glanced off a Maverick defender and went in the net.

          UCCS led until the 73rd minute when Redshirt Freshman Kaitlynn Holt (Wahiawa, Hawaii) scored the equalizer. Holt took a carom off a UCCS defender and took a shot from 5 yards out that found the back of the net. The goal was Holt's first of the season and first of her Mesa State career. That setup Parkhurst's heroics in overtime.

          The Maverick seniors played their final game in a Maverick uniform on Sunday. Seniors Alicia Kahler (Spokane, Wash), Marissa Cascio (Glendale, Ariz), Kelly Husky (Littleton, Colo) and Daniela Ramirez (Rupert, Idaho) all played in Sunday's finale.
