MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – – The University of Iowa field hockey team won at Central Michigan Sunday, 1-0. The match was held at the CMU Field Hockey Complex in Mount Pleasant, MI.

Defense was the theme in the first half as neither team was able to push across a goal. The Hawkeye offense applied pressure throughout the second half and broke through late in the period. Iowa was awarded a penalty corner in the 64th minute. It capitalized as freshman Marike Stribos found sophomore Jessica Barnett, who scored to give the Hawkeyes a 1-0 advantage.

The Iowa defense held the Chippewas scoreless the rest of the way to seal the 1-0 victory. The Hawkeye defense was led by sophomore goalkeeper Kathleen McGraw, who notched her third shutout of the year.
