Odason Pelogi powers in one of his two goals for the day
Box Score KIRKLAND, Wash. – Northwest University scored three times in the first half and two in the second for a 5-0 shutout victory over Northwest Christian this afternoon on Cascade Conference play. Co-captain and leading scorer for NU, Taylor Young sat out today's game with an injury as his teammates picked up the scoring slack.
 
Odason Pelogi (Federal Way, Wash.) scored two goals and added an assist to lead the NU scoring. Trever Moll (Polson, Mont.), Jacob Weaver (Spokane, Wash.) and Chris Iacolucci (Shoreline, Wash.) also scored for Northwest.
 
Moll scored first Northwest U (6-1, 2-1 CCC) taking Kyle Zimmerman (Bothell, Wash.) cross and scored into the right side of the net from 18 yards out in the 16th minute. Jacob Weaver's header over the top of NCU's defense put NU up 2-0 at the 22:51 mark. Chris Iacolucci wrapped up the Eagle scoring in the first half as he intercepted the NCU goalkeeper's clear, beat a defender and put his shot into the lower left corner of the net.
 
Pelogi's goals came less than 2 minutes apart as he scored at 60:48 and 61:29. Chris Iacolucci assisted on Pelogi's first goal and Todd Siedenburg put a through ball to Pelogi as he powered his shot into the lower right of the net for his second goal.
 
Bren Bletscher (Gearhart, Ore.) had 8 saves in goal for Northwest Christian (1-3-2, 0-2-1 CCC) in 82 minutes and Daniel Christenson (Bothell, Wash.) earned the shutout for Northwest U with 7 saves in goal for the Eagles. NU outshot NCU 23-10 and had 6 corner kicks to 3 for NCU.
 
"It was nice to see our senior Trever Moll get us going on the score sheet today," said Gary McIntosh, NU head coach. "The team did an excellent job today getting the shutout and scoring 5 goals. It was also good to see us rebound from Saturday's loss and we now have few days to prepare for Saturday's game in Portland with Concordia."
 
The Eagles will play Concordia in Portland on Saturday, Sept. 27, at 1 p.m.
