EUGENE, Ore. – Northwest got back to its shutout ways Sunday with a 2-0 victory at Bushnell.
 
Kierstin Patefield turned back two Bushnell shots to give the Eagles their fifth Cascade Collegiate Conference shutout.
 
Olivia Morris scored an unassisted goal in the 26th minute for the 1-0 lead. Callie Wright made it 2-0, using a feed from Grace Burke in the 69th minute.
 
"Although we came away with the win, we are disappointed with today's performance," said NU Head Coach Bryan Chud. "The all-around play and execution were not to the standards that we expect and are striving for. We now change our focus to tomorrow, to come out and play our game."
 
Northwest had 13 shots in the game, with Burke and Maya Lewis taking three each. Morris and Wright took two shots apiece. NU tested the Beacon keepers nine times.  Wright and Burke had two shots on goal each, while Anna Lau, Jennifer Conner, Madison Morrow, Lewis, and Morris had one apiece.
 
The teams finish the series with another contest at 2:30 p.m. on Monday.
