Northeast women’s soccer tops Concordia University JV

SEWARD, Neb. – The Northeast Community College women's soccer team got back to its winning ways on Thursday, shutting out Concordia University JV, 2-0 in Seward, Neb.

Naomi Pedroza (Hastings, Neb.) scored both goals for the Hawks (9-2, 1-1 ICCAC). She was assisted by Kyla Ryan (Seymour, Wis.) in the 14^th-minute and again by Ryan in the 58^th-minute.

The Hawks out-shot the Bulldogs, 15-4. Mackenzie Byrnes (Brighton, Colo.) had two saves in the net.

"This was a game we needed," head coach Chad Miller said. "Concordia always plays tough and that is exactly what we needed to get ourselves back to our game. We played much more relaxed and composed under pressure. We moved the ball well and played much better mentally. It was good to see us play our game."

The Hawks host Hawkeye Community College at 1 p.m. tomorrow at Norfolk Veteran's Memorial Field in Norfolk.
