The Northwestern College women’s basketball team plays for the NAIA division two national championship in Sioux City this evening. The Red Raiders defeated Briair Cliff 91-83 in last night’s semifinal round.

Northwestern coach Earl Woudstra says it was a battle. The Red Raiders play Shawnee State in the title game. He says they have some talented individual players, but he says he likes their chances. Woudstra says the teams look a lot alike.

Northwestern is 30-5. Shawnee State is 29-6.
