ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Top-ranked Northwestern earned a share of the 2024 Big Ten Field Hockey Championship with a 2-1 overtime win over seventh-ranked Michigan Friday at Ocker Field.

The championship is the eighth in program history and the second-straight for the Wildcats, who have won 18-straight conference games dating to 2022. The title is also the third for Head Coach Tracey Fuchs.

Northwestern (16-0, 6-0 Big Ten) will attempt to win the regular season championship outright Sunday at Michigan State.
