On Tuesday, Air Force Women’s Basketball will recognize its Class of 2026 graduates prior to the team’s home game against San Diego State at Clune Arena. The matchup is scheduled for 4:05 p.m. MT and will be broadcast on the Mountain West Network and XtraSports AM 1300.
This Senior Day celebration will honor Cadets First-Class Emily Adams and Milahnie Perry. Both are set to commission into the United States Air Force as second lieutenants upon graduation. Adams, who will receive a management degree, is assigned to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio as an acquisitions manager. Perry, also graduating with a management degree, will serve as a contracting officer at MacDill AFB in Tampa.
Air Force enters the contest with a record of 13-16 overall and 7-12 in Mountain West play. San Diego State stands at 24-4 overall and 18-1 in conference games. In their last outings, Air Force fell to Colorado State (66-52), while San Diego State defeated Wyoming (70-51). Both teams’ next games are scheduled for the Mountain West Championships.
Senior Milahnie Perry leads Air Force in scoring with an average of 16.8 points per game, which currently tops the Mountain West Conference. Junior Keelie O’Hollaren follows with a 9-point average. The Falcons lead the conference in turnover margin (3.90) and rank second in turnovers forced per game (17.41). They are also third in steals per game (8.9) and offensive rebounding (12.1 rpg).
Reflecting on her recent performance, Perry scored 17 points against Colorado State—moving her into second place all-time for career scoring at Air Force with 1,714 points. She is now just 25 points away from surpassing Melissa Standley’s school record of 1,738 career points.
Adams has shown notable improvement during her final season at Air Force, averaging 12.4 points over her last twelve games—the most productive stretch of her career—and achieving ten double-digit scoring games this season.
Sophomore Jayda McNabb continues to be a consistent presence for the Falcons, leading both the team and conference in offensive rebounding (4.1 rpg) and ranking third overall in total rebounds (7.6 rpg). She also ranks second among Mountain West players in steals per game (2.24).
In recent trends, Air Force has been successful when leading at halftime or when holding opponents under sixty points; they have an eight-to-one record when ahead after two quarters and nine wins out of eleven games when limiting opponents’ scores below sixty.
