THE ACFT VEERED OFF THE RWY AND NOSED OVER IN THE SOFT GRASS DURING LANDING. THE CFI AND STUDENT HAD BEEN PRACTICING CROSSWIND LANDINGS ON RWY 26 WITH THE WIND FROM 290 DEGREES AT 11 KTS. AFTER THE LANDINGS THE CFI GOT OUT OF ACFT SO THAT THE STUDENT COULD CONTINUED AS SOLO. ONCE AIRBORNE THE TOWER CHANGED THE LANDING RUNWAY TO 35. THE STUDENT ACCEPTED THE CHANGE AND WAS LANDING VERY WELL ON THE 1ST SOLO LANDING UNTIL THE NOSE GEAR WAS LOWERED. AT THIS POINT THE ACFT VEERED OFF AND NOSED OVER. THE CHIEF FLT INSTRUCTOR SAID 'THE CROSSWIND SHOULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED BY THE TOWER AND PLT. ALSO THE MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL SHOULD BE MORE AWARE OF WIND AND WEATHER AND HOW THEY AFFECT ACFT PRIOR TO A DECISION TO DO ARPT CHECKS. CONTINUED USE OF RWY 26 MAY HAVE AVOIDED THIS ACCIDENT'.
