ARKADELPHIA, Ark. --- Northeastern State picked up goals from Myka Heimbach and Sarah Rector in a 2-1 victory over Ouachita Baptist at Kluck Field here Thursday.

The RiverHawks took the lead with just five minutes gone in the second half as Rector picked up her first goal of the year for a 2-1 advantage.

NSU keeper Brennan Hockett and the RiverHawks defense was tough down the stretch securing the 2-1 victory.
