Box Score MORRIS, Minn. - With both teams having already clinched a berth in next week's UMAC Women's Soccer Postseason Tournament, the regular season finale between Minnesota Morris and Northwestern Friday at the Cougar Soccer Field was all about seeding for the tournament. With the 1-0 win, the Cougars secured the No. 3 seed and will travel to Duluth on Wednesday for a date with No. 2 St. Scholastica.

The game's lone goal came early on, in the 11th minute.

Northwestern outshot Minnesota Morris 6-3 the rest of the half, but Torri Jordan made a pair of saves to retain the one goal lead going into halftime.

The Cougars held onto the lead in the second half by being on the offensive by having a 3-0 edge in shots on goal in the second 45 minutes.
