“I am so incredibly proud of the girls and the resilience they showed in overcoming everything they faced,” head coach Jim Thomas said. “An amazing opponent, challenging conditions and the pressure that only exists at the end of a season! They faced it all and showed great togetherness and class. What a tremendous performance!”

Boise State can clinch a share of the Pac-12 regular season title with a win over Washington State on Thursday, Nov. 5. The Broncos will close out the regular season that day by hosting Washington State at 7 p.m. MT, with the match streamed live on Pac-12 YouTube.

De Leest recorded her 13th goalkeeper win of the season, tying for the third-most in a single season in program history, and with 23 career wins moved into sole possession of sixth place in program history. Her 10 shutouts this season tie Tara Fisher (2018) and Genevieve Crenshaw (2022) for the second-most in program history.
