With their 2-0 loss at BYU, the Aggies had a string of five consecutive shutouts snapped. It is tied for the second-longest streak in school annals.

The Rebels rebounded with wins against Cal Baptist (2-0) and Cal State Bakers Field (2-1), but a trip to Durham, N.C. resulted in losses to No. 12 Duke (3-0) and No. 1 North Carolina (8-0). Freshman Alysa Caso has logged two of UNLV's four goals in just 109 minutes of action. Emberly Sevilla has started all five games in goal, logging a 2.56 goals against average and one shutout.
