The team pulled off the sweep of Northern this year after losing both games last year. The win leaves Riverside in a battle with Chapel Hill for the 2 spot, and secures no worse than 3rd place in the conference.
Gretchen Scheffe scored the game winning goal 4 minutes in to the game. The play was started by Julia McEwen's drop pass to Grace Sykes, who played a 40 yard pass up the field for a breakaway. Gretchen took on the goal keeper and buried the ball in the side netting to take the early lead. The defense never let up and Northern never got on the board.
This was the 6th shutout in 10 conference games this year. Currently the team is 6-3-1 in conference play.
