The Lady Wave soccer team finished the regular season unbeaten at home by dominating Fernley, 7-0, tying Lowry, 2-2, in Winnemucca on Saturday.
 
Fallon, which finished 6-1-2, will face Spring Creek on Saturday on the road in a battle for the 1A East championship. The Spartans won the first round last month before the Greenwave defense held in the second game, which resulted in a scoreless tie.

 
Before Friday’s game, coach Manny Lopez and athletics director Brad Daum honored the seven seniors, who will play their final game for the green and white this weekend in Spring Creek. The senior class includes Hailey Guerrero, Vera Vaz, Makayle Mathisen, Aubrey Jaques, Bianca Lopez, Kendra Pacheco and Larissa Sanches.
