  • Regan Zimmers connected in the 35th minute to record the game winner of Sunday's match. Zimmers received a pass and headed it into two ORU players. The ball deflected right back to her and she took a shot five yards out of the box and sent it high over the goal keeper for Omaha's second goal of the game.
