IOWA CITY -- Jordyn Rolli scored in the eighth minute of overtime as Northern Iowa pulled out a 2-1 victory over Central Michigan Sunday at the Hawkeye Invitational.

Rolli's 98th minute goal came after she collected a rebound near the Chippewas' goal and blasted it home.

"Relieved for our players to get a big win in overtime," UNI coach Bruce Erickson said. "This is a resilient bunch. Several players had to step up due to injuries and defend against a tough physical opponent ."

UNI outshot CMU, 16-8, but it was the Chippewas who scored first as Shannon Magnan scored in the 19th minute on an assist from Sarah Mitchell.
