NWC Drops Final Home Regular Season Match to No. 23 Hastings

ORANGE CITY, Iowa – The Northwestern College women's soccer team (5-10-1, 3-7-1 GPAC) dropped the final regular season home match of the year to No. 23-ranked Hastings College (13-1-2, 8-1 GPAC) 3-0 at the NWC Soccer Complex.
 
The No. 23-ranked Broncos struck early in the match when in the third minute Naomi Pedroza found the back of the net to make it 1-0 Hastings. The Broncos would score again in the 26th minute to double their lead at 2-0.
 
Following the second Bronco goal, Northwestern had their first true look at goal with a shot from Julie Dunlap (Sr., Des Moines, Iowa) in the 32nd minute. The Raiders had an opportunity right before the half as Marissa Talamantes (Fr., Marshall, Minn.) had a look on-goal, but the Hastings keeper was able to secure it to keep it 2-0 Hastings at the break.
 
Naomi Pedroza would find the back of the net again in the 53rd minute for the lone goal of the second half, as Hastings left the NWC Soccer Complex with a 3-0 victory and holding onto the top spot in the league standings.
