The No. 14-ranked Ohio Northern women's soccer team used a strong offensive effort to claim the Ohio Athletic Conference Regular Season Championship outright and move its win streak to 13 games with a 7-2 victory over Baldwin Wallace on Tuesday evening at Kerscher Stadium.
The Polar Bears improve to 15-1-1 overall and 8-0-0 in the OAC, while the visiting Yellow Jackets drop to 11-6-1, 4-3-1.
Northern was led in the contest by freshman Jenna Fuller (Countryside, Ill./Lyons Township) as she scored two goals and tallied two assists for ONU.
Local residents are invited to join ONU students in a Zombie Chase on campus at 7 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 27. It costs $5 to participate in the walk/run from The Pavilion to Affinity Commons, about a mile. Along the way, the walkers/runners will be scared by zombies.
The event is sponsored by Phi Mu Delta and the Association of Future Forensics. Those 13 and older may participate. Those under 18 years of age need a waiver, which is available at the event, signed by a parent. T-shirts will be sold for $12.
