OMAHA, Neb. – Oklahoma State extended its winning streak to four Friday night as the 20^th-ranked Cowgirls defeated Creighton, 2-0, at Morrison Stadium.

Grace Yochum and Kim Rodriguez recorded goals for OSU, while Hannah Warner and Dani Greenlee combined for the Cowgirls' fifth shutout of the season.

With the win, OSU improved to 7-1-0 on the season while Creighton dropped to 3-5-0.

The Cowgirls outshot the home team by a 28-13 margin, with 15 of those shots on goal as CU keeper Katie Sullivan posted a career-high 13 saves. OSU also held a 10-2 edge on corner kicks.

OSU netted its first score in the 27^th minute when a Rodriguez corner kick led to a goal as Yochum was on the receiving end and headed it to the near post for her second goal of the season and a 1-0 lead for the Cowgirls.

It didn't take long for the Cowgirls to double their advantage, and they did so off another set piece in the 33^rd minute. On a free kick from just outside the box, Marlo Zoller tapped a pass to Julia Lenhardt who sent it back to Rodriguez. The sophomore then crushed a left-footed shot to the near post. Rodriguez' goal was her third of the season and marked her first non-penalty kick score.

The Cowgirls continued to control possession and the attack following intermission, outshooting CU by a 12-5 count in the second half, but were unable to increase their lead.

OSU returns to action Sunday at UMKC in a match scheduled for a 1 p.m. start.
