PORTLAND, OR - All of the action for the Northwest University women's soccer matchup against the Pioneers happened in the final 13 minutes of the game. Two NU goals in the last 10 minutes of the match secured the Eagle's second preseason win. 

After Lewis & Clark scored in the 77th minute, NU answered three minutes later with a goal by Charly Scherbarth assisted by Ana Andrade. 

With the game tied at 1-1, Grace Burke put in a game winner in the 86th minute assisted by Gracie VanAssche. 

It took the whole first half for the Eagles to connect offensively as they only attempted three shots in the first 45 minutes of play. They ended the match with 10.

RiaJo Schwartz took the win as goalkeeper with eight saves.

With two wins now under her belt, Head Coach April VanAssche says, "I am very proud of the way this team came together today! It was not our best first half; however, our halftime talk seemed to light the fire we needed. I could not be more proud of how hard they came out and accomplished everything we were working for. They had to come back from being down, showed resilience as group, and found a way to fight back to get the win. A lot of players came through for us with composure and tenacity. This was a good win."

The Eagles play again at home in one week. They will match up with the University of Puget Sound at 1 pm on September 9.
