Freshman forward Campbell Wilson made an immediate impact in her collegiate debut, finding the net twice and adding an assist to guide Boise State to a 3‑0 victory over CSUN.
Wilson opened the scoring in the 22nd minute, receiving a pass from Sophie Schmautz before slotting the ball past the goalkeeper. Her second goal came later in the match, sealing the win and showcasing her versatility on the attack.
Olivia Collins also got on the scoresheet, marking her first goal of the season and the fifth of her career, while senior goalkeeper Ava de Leest recorded her seventh career shutout, preserving the clean sheet.
Milestones and Momentum
The performance contributed to Boise State’s 15‑match unbeaten streak, the longest active run in the nation, and marked the program’s first season‑opening shutout since August 22, 2021. It was also the first time since 2007 that a Bronco has scored twice in a season opener, echoing the feat of former star Shannon Saxton.
Head coach Jim Thomas praised the team’s mentality, emphasizing a drive for continual improvement and the importance of building momentum early in the campaign.
Looking ahead, the Broncos are set to host Weber State on August 16 at 6 p.m. MT, aiming to extend their winning streak on their home turf, where they have gone 6‑0‑3 over the past nine home openers.
