North Union girls soccer team topples Northwestern

The North Union girls soccer team finished its home regular-season schedule with a 4-2 victory over Northwestern.

It was the Lady Cats’ (4-12 overall, 3-8 Central Buckeye Conference) first win over Northwestern (3-12-1, 0-11) in school history.

It was also North Union’s Senior Night and head coach Bill Leroy was glad seniors Kinley Balzer, Peyton Engle, Hallie Young and Jessanie Pfister ended their final home game with a victory.
