Police are investigating the death of a New Mexico State University women’s soccer player after she was found "unresponsive" at her residence early Monday morning. She was 20. 

NMSU Director of Athletics Mario Moccia confirmed in a statement on Tuesday that Thalia Chaverria, a junior from Bakersfield, California, died "suddenly" just days after her 20th birthday. 

"Yesterday, we lost an amazing young woman, and we are deeply saddened by the untimely passing of a member of our Aggie family," Moccia said. "Thalia had a vibrant personality and those who were fortunate enough to spend time with her knew she had a bright future ahead of her."

Police are continuing their investigation, but noted they "have no reason to believe Chaverria’s death is suspicious or the result of criminal activity."
