TAHLEQUAH -- Northeastern State heads to Lubbock, Texas to play two neutral-site contests at Lubbock Christian on Thursday and Saturday to close out a four-match road trip.
The RiverHawks (1-3) have gotten off to a fast start in three matches with a goal in the opening two minutes; two of them have come under 30 seconds from the opening whistle.
This week's matches will be the final non-conference matches with GAC/MIAA play starting next.
