Northwest Second Half Goal Sinks Owls
Klamath Falls, Ore. – Northwest gave Oregon Tech its first loss in conference play, when a late second half goal propelled the Eagles past the Owls 1-0 in a game played in snow flurries today at Trevor Derrah Field.
Both teams struggled to find any offense, as Oregon Tech only attempted three shots on goal while NU was credited for six. However, the Eagles wound up on top today, when a header by Brittany Marshall off a Britannique Clayberg corner kick found the back of the net to give the Eagles the only score of the game, going on to win 1-0.
The loss dropped the Owls to 3-7-2 on the season and 2-1-1 in conference play. The victory for the Eagles puts them at 5-3-2 overall and 4-2 in conference action.
The Owls will look to get back on track when they host The Evergreen State College Saturday, October 11th at 1:00 pm. Northwest will travel to Ashland on Saturday to face the Raiders of Southern Oregon at noon.
