BOULDER - The Colorado women's lacrosse team hosts the San Diego State Aztecs this Friday at 1 p.m. MT.
The Buffs (5-5, 4-1) have been on a roll since entering conference play, winning four out of their last five games, including a thrilling 17-15 victory over Stanford at home.
Since defeating Stanford and Cal at home on the same weekend, the Buffs have been on the road for the last two weeks.
During that time, Charlie Rudy has become the top scorer in the Pac-12 with 37 goals this season. Rudy has had a hat trick in nine out of ten games this year, including a hat trick in the first quarter of the Buffs' last two games.
Sixth-year graduate student Sam McGee has also been on a scoring run. At third in the Pac-12 in goals with 30, McGee set a single-game high for the Buffs with six goals against Arizona State. Most recently, McGee scored four goals against Oregon.
The Buffs have never lost to SDSU in the program's history and are on an eight game winning streak over the Aztecs.
During the game at Kittredge Field, CU is pairing with Out Boulder to honor inclusivity for all and to celebrate Pride.
The Aztecs
San Diego State (5-8) hasn't won a road game yet this season, earning all five of their victories at home.
The Aztecs and the Buffs have already faced off against some similar opponents this year, with varying results. The Buffs' first season win came against Ohio State University in a 14-10 victory; San Diego State fell to OSU 10-4. Meanwhile, both teams defeated California and both squads lost to USC, although the Buffs lost to the Trojans by only a four point margin while SDSU lost by nine.
For San Diego State, senior attacker Deanna Balsama has established herself as the Aztecs' top-scorer by a wide margin and has already earned 40 goals this season.The next closest scorer on the team is Caitlin Jones with 14 goals.
The Buffs will aim to extend their winning streak to three at home this Friday at 1 p.m.
