Rams Fall in Final Game of the 2018 Season

ST. PAUL, Minn. - North Central University went on the road on Saturday afternoon, for their final contest of the 2018 season. The Rams faced off against fellow UMAC foe, the Northwestern Eagles, and were unable to find much of an answer for the offensive pace of the Eagles as they fell by the score of 5-0.

Game Vitals

  • The Rams could not find an offensive spark as they finished the match with only two total shots.
  • The Rams fall to 5-12 (2-10 UMAC).

Game Recap

  • North Central fought extremely hard with the second seed in the UMAC , and kept the game very tight for much of the contest. The Ram's defensive effort kept the Eagles of of the score board for the first 45 minutes, but they were unable to find the back of the net themselves, so both teas headed to the break scoreless. The Eagles came out of halftime with something to prove as they quickly turned the 0-0 tie into a 4 goal lead, only eight minutes into the second period. The Rams were unable to match the Eagle's offensive fire power, mustering only one second half shot. The Eagles added one more goal late in the period to push their lead to five goals. The Rams continued to fight until the final whistle, but could not seem to find an answer to slow down the Eagles as they would fall by a score of 5-0.

Key Performers

Season Recap:

  • The Rams finish the season with a record of 5-12 and 2-10 conference record. Highlights on the season include; a huge upset early in the season against Minnesota-Morris for Head Coach, Colette Montgomery's, first UMAC victory and a dominate 8-3 win over Crown on senior day in which senior, Abby Schwinden, set the NCU record for single-game scoring with her impressive 6 goals. The Rams had a few big wins, but stayed very tight in a lot of tough losses as they finish the season with four losses being by only one goal. The Rams offense was impressive all year as they finished second in the UMAC in goals scored. The North Central Women were represented three different times for UMAC player of the week honors; one coming from freshman, Payton Swoboda, and the other two coming from senior, Abby Schwinden. 
  • The Rams say good bye to their two awesome seniors Abby Schwinden and Linnea Madsen, both were two big pieces of the rotation for the Rams and will be missed. The young Rams played extremely hard for first year Head Coach Colette Montgomery and they will look to improve next season with the core foundation staying mostly intact showing a lot of potential for a very bright future.
