WEST BURLINGTON, Iowa – The No. 16 Northeast Community College women's soccer team blanked (RV) Southeastern Community College on Saturday, 2-0 in an ICCAC match in West Burlington, Iowa.
Naomi Pedroza (Hastings, Neb.) did what she does best, recording a goal in the eighth minute to give the Hawks (5-2-1, 5-2-1 ICCAC) an early lead. Sara Pedroza (Hastings, Neb.) followed with a goal in the 38th-minute, thanks to an assist from sister Naomi. Mackenzie Byrnes (Brighton, Colo.) tallied three saves in the win. The Hawks outshot the Blackhawks, 9-5.
"We started strong from the whistle and were able to get a quick goal," head coach Chad Miller said. "That has been very helpful for us in the past couple of games. We were able to get another late in the first. In the second half we had some really good chances to add to it, but the real story in our goalkeeper Mackenzie Byrnes who kept Southeastern off the board."
The Hawks welcome Hawkeye Community College for a 3 p.m. match on Tuesday at Memorial Field in Norfolk.
