On a wet, late-October afternoon, the No. 23-ranked Ohio Northern women's soccer program dropped its regular season finale 2-1 to Ohio Athletic Conference foe Mount Union on Saturday at Kerscher Stadium.

The Polar Bears move to 13-3-1 overall and 7-1-1 in league play. With their conference record, Northern has claimed the two seed in the 2018 OAC Tournament, a first round bye, and semifinal round hosting rights in their first postseason contest next Thursday. Northern can also claim a share of the OAC Regular Season title with an Otterbein loss Saturday evening when they play Capital at 7 p.m.

Meanwhile, the Purple Raiders improve to 10-6-0 overall and complete their OAC regular season with a 7-2-0 mark.

Prior to Saturday's contest, Ohio Northern honored senior women's soccer student-athletes McKenna Welsh (Westerville/Bishop Hartley), Kelleigh Pier (Mason, Mich.), and Sarah Puntel(Strongsville) as part of the program's annual Senior Day festivities. The trio has helped ONU reach the OAC Tournament all four seasons, capture two OAC Regular Season titles and one OAC Tournament crown, and achieve an impressive .900 win percentage in league play entering Saturday's matchup.
