GREELEY — It took a 2-0 UNC lead to wake Creighton’s sleeping giant; but by that time, it was too late. Brittani Knott and Danielle Birdsall scored second-half goals as the University of Northern Colorado held off a late charge by the Bluejays in a 2-1 victory on Sunday afternoon at Jackson Stadium.
Jordan Bruch, a 5-foot-9 senior from Papillion, Neb., came to life after Birdsall gave the Bears a two-goal lead in the 64th minute. Bruch cut the lead in half less than four minutes later, and she kept the Bluejays pressing for much of the remaining 20 minutes or so.
