WILDER, Ky. - Kurt Trouba’s goal at the 71:57 mark snapped a 1-1 tie Sunday and lifted Rockhurst (Mo.) University to a 2-1 victory over Northern Kentucky University at the Town & Country Sports Complex.
NKU had tied the match at 1-1 eight minutes into the second half when freshman Nick Rascona broke open and beat Rockhurst goalie Matt Meier for a score. The contest remained tied until Trouba headed in a pass from Chris Ulrich for the winning goal.
Rockhurst, ranked No. 6 nationally in the NCAA Division II poll, upped its record to 4-1. NKU - which dropped a 2-0 decision on Saturday to No. 13 Truman State University - is now 1-4.
NKU will hit the road Friday for a 4 p.m. match at Oakland City University.
