Niagara Edges Penguins, 2-1
   
Youngstown -- Niagara's Emily Montgomery
headed in the game-winning goal off a corner kick in the 57th minute to lead the Purple Eagles (4-3) to a 2-1 victory over the Youngstown State soccer team (0-7-1) on Friday afternoon at Stambaugh Stadium.
    The Penguins got on the scoreboard early when freshman Tessa Brookman found junior Jessica Yarter in the middle of the box for her first goal this season, but the Penguins' lead was short lived when Natalie Frost scored in the 27th minute off a deflection from a YSU player.
    Niagara outshot YSU 20-13, but YSU held the edge on corners 6-5.  Senior keeper Mia Railing recorded 12 saves for YSU.
    The Penguins are next in action on Sunday when they travel to Chicago for a 1 p.m. match against Horizon League foe Loyola.
