COLLEGE PLACE, WASH. – Walla Walla continued their homestand, welcoming in the Northwest University Eagles. The Wolves sputtered in the beginning, as an early defensive breakdown allowed the Eagles to quickly take the lead 1-0, five minutes into the match, but the Wolve's defense regrouped and would not allow another goal in the half, going into intermission down 1-0.
It was not until an Eagles attack in the 75th minute that would put the match out of the reach for the Wolves, as the Eagle's offense scored three goals within a two-minute span to secure the win.
