The Ichabods will celebrate Senior Day on Sunday with a 1 p.m. kickoff against No. 15 Missouri Western.

The first half of Friday's match was a defensive struggle, with the score staying at 0-0 entering halftime.

The best chance for either side came in the 42nd minute, when a shot from Washburn's Hunter McWilliams was deflected and fell to Ana Muruzabal, whose close-range shot was saved.

The Ichabods (11-3-2 overall, 8-1-1 MIAA) took seven shots in the half, while holding the Bearcats (7-4-6, 5-3-3) to three attempts.

The second half started much quicker than the first, with Schuckman finding her first score of the evening off a short pass from Mackinly Rohn.

The eventual game-winning goal was Schuckman's 16th career game-winner, tying the Washburn school record.

With a narrow lead, the Washburn defense held strong, keeping the Bearcats out of scoring opportunities as Northwest Missouri was unable to record a shot attempt in the second half.

In the 83rd minute, Schuckman put the contest away, receiving a long pass from Grace Peterson and putting a shot just to the right of Bearcat goalkeeper Lily Ellis.

The Ichabod defense stood firm to preserve the team's 13th clean sheet of the season.

Washburn took 16 shots in the contest, with six coming on goal.

Schuckman led the Ichabods with four attempts, while Peterson and Aubrey Tanksley added three shots each.

Alli Harrington earned the shutout in goal, playing all 90 minutes.

Northwest Missouri took three shots in the match. Adell Gore led the Bearcats with two shot attempts, while Ellis made four saves in goal.
