PROVO -- The No. 19 BYU women's soccer team will play its last regular season match of the season at UNLV Friday with the Mountain West Conference regular season championship on the line.

The Cougars (14-2-2, 4-2-0) are ranked third in the nation in goals-against average (.377), third in shutout percentage (.667), and ninth in save percentage (.889). They are also sixth in won-loss-tied percentage (.833). UNLV is currently atop the Mountain West Conference standings and just one point ahead of BYU, but BYU has never lost to UNLV.

The MWC Tournament will be held in Provo Nov. 7-10. Teams participating in the Tournament include BYU, UNLV, Utah, San Diego State, TCU, and Wyoming. Seeding for the tournament will be decided by this week's games. A BYU win would clinch a first-round bye in the Tournament.
