The Portland State women’s soccer team beat North Dakota 3-1 to earn their first conference victory of the season Sunday, recovering from their loss to the University of Northern Colorado last week. This evened up their conference record to 1-1.
The Bears had an own goal early in the second half, but sophomore Kayla Henningsen and senior Amanda Howie were responsible for the other two.
North Dakota scored first in the match, but it was all Vikings from there. Three goals is a big improvement from the loss to Northern Colorado, when the Vikings failed to score despite putting up more shots than their opponent.
Portland State plays at home this weekend in two conference games, one against the University of Montana and the second against Eastern Washington University. Both games will be at Hillsboro Stadium.
