Scoring goals will be the name of the game this Saturday for the NIU field hockey team.

Coming off a 2-2 tie versus Northwestern and a 3-1 loss to Michigan last weekend, NIU squares off with conference foe Iowa University Saturday at Iowa City, Iowa.

Laurie Bell’s squad not only faces the No. 5 Hawkeyes, but the obstacle of getting on the scoreboard. NIU has tallied just seven goals in its first six matches.
