The Nationally #6-ranked Ferris State University women's soccer squad earned a victory in its second contest of the season on Sunday with a 3-1 win over Northwood.

The Bulldogs (2-0-0) remained unbeaten with the regional home win. FSU also celebrated last year's Midwest Regional Championship squad that reached the NCAA Final Four with a special pregame ceremony.

Junior goalkeeper Lauren Kubacki recorded the start and victory for Ferris State, while senior Payton Price had a goal and assist. Sophomore Bella Vallone and freshman Katherine Welch each recorded goals as well for FSU.

Price put the Bulldogs up only 53 seconds into the outing as she beat the Northwood defense to the outside and placed a shot above the Timberwolves keeper, Lindsay Jacob. Price's first tally of the season put Ferris State up 1-0 early.

With 35 minutes still on the clock in the first half, senior Isabella Sabo placed an excellent pass off a corner kick set piece to the center of the box. Vallone was the first player to the ball, and her header snuck past Jacob to give Ferris State a 2-0 lead.

Kubacki had a shutout going until there were only 22 minutes remaining in the game. Juliana Paoletti beat Kubacki to a ball in the air and snuck a shot past the Bulldog keeper to make the score 2-1.

With Northwood determined to record the tying goal, Price once again pressed into Timberwolves' territory. She got to the outside and centered a ball right in front of the net. Welch came crashing down and headed it into the back of the net, propelling Ferris to a 3-1 lead with under 10 minutes to play.

The Bulldogs held on to that lead and moved to 2-0-0 on the season with the victory.

Kubacki recorded seven saves in the win, while both teams attempted 16 shots. The Bulldogs had four corner kicks and Northwood had six. Isabella Baron led the Bulldogs with four shot attempts and three shots on goal.

Ferris State will next be on the road Friday, Sept. 8, as the Bulldogs face Findlay at 4 p.m. (ET) in Ohio. FSU then plays yet another regional tilt at Ashland on Sunday, Sept. 10, at 2 p.m. (ET).
