Eagles Fall to Concordia in Title Game

Box Score KIRKLAND, Wash. – Martha Heaps scored the lone goal and game winner for No. 3 ranked Concordia as they defeated No. 23 Northwest University, 1-0, in the CCC Championships title game to win the tournament and a berth in the 2014 NAIA National Championships. The game was played under sunny skies, but temperatures hovered in the low 40's during the game. Concordia came into the game as the No. 2 seed  and Northwest U the No. 1 seed in the CCC tournament.

The Cavaliers now move on to the first round of the NAIA National Women's Soccer Championships which begin Saturday, November 22.
 
Heaps' goal came in the 48th minute as she took a through ball from teammate Erin Huisingh and put her hard shot on the ground just past NU goalkeeper, Patty Hughes in the lower right corner of the goal after it was deflected by an NU defender.
 
Concordia controlled possession for most of the game finishing with 14 shots while limiting Northwest U to 5. CU had 6 corners to the Eagles' 3. Patty Hughes had 7 saves in goal for Northwest U while Concordia's Olivia Brock came up with 2 saves for the Cavaliers.
 
Concordia finishes the season with an overall record of 16-1-2 while Northwest completes their season with an 11-6-2 overall record.

"Our team gave all they had and more today," said head coach, Val Seid. "You couldn't ask any more from this great group of ladies and they battled through injury and adversity all year long to accomplish what they did. We wish we could have continued our season, but when we have time to reflect on our season, winning the conference championship for the second time in three years will be quite a memory for our team."
