Junior forward Stephanie Ostrander came off the bench to score two goals to lead the Rockhurst Hawks to a 2-1 victory over Northwest Missouri State Sunday night at Bourke Field.

Ostrander rebounded a shot from six yards out off the Northwest keeper in the 75th minute to five the Hawks a 1-0 lead. McKenna Leetch was credited with an assist. Ostrander came back five minutes later to put in a shot from three yards out off a left cross from Leetch. Northwest scored with 30 seconds left to cut the Hawks' lead in half.

Rockhurst outshot the Bearcats, 19-6. Leetch led the Hawks with four shots and two shots on goal. Cathy Rometti and Brittany Valieant added three shots apiece. Freshman goalkeeper Megan Meyers made two saves.

"This was a very positive effort tonight. We had a lot of players give us good minutes off the bench," said Rockhurst coach Greg Herdlick.
