Women's Soccer travels to Fort Hays and Nebraska-Kearney for pivotal MIAA matches

TAHLEQUAH, Okla. -- The Northeastern State women's soccer team leaves Tahlequah for the last time in the regular season for two pivotal matches that'll play big roles in their MIAA tournament participation.

The RiverHawks (8-6-1, 3-5-1 MIAA) gathered two differing results this past week, falling to Central Oklahoma 3-0, then bouncing back with a 5-0 victory over Newman.  With three matches left in the regular season, the RiverHawks are only a point above Rogers State in holding the final spot for the MIAA postseason.

After her two goals against Newman, Sydney Taylor moved her career total to 24, with the senior now tied for third among MIAA players with seven this season.
