ROCHESTER, MICH. - Nebojsa Popovic scored his team leading fourth and fifth goals of the season while Luke Morrell added his second goal to lead Oakland to a 3-1 win over visiting Northern Kentucky on homecoming Saturday at the Grizz Dome. Noah Jensen also recorded two assists.

Popovic got Oakland on the board first off a feed from Elliott Bentley in the 26th minute followed by Morrell who made a run to the near post and headed in a corner kick cross from Jensen giving the Golden Grizzlies a 2-0 lead in the 32nd minute.

After NKU cut the lead to 2-1 at the 50th minute in the second half, Popovic sealed the deal with under two minutes remaining as he broke in behind the last defender and put home Jensen's pass past NKU keeper Jim Barkei who came off his line. 

Oakland travels to Western Michigan for a non conference match on Tue. Oct. 9 at 4:30 p.m.
