For the first time this season, the Niles soccer team has a winning streak.
The Vikings beat Bridgman 5-2 Tuesday night in non-conference action.
Gilles Nsengiyumva scored two goals in the first half and Kyle Kidwell added another goal to give Niles (2-3-1) a 3-0 lead at halftime.
Nsengiyumva assisted on Evan Smith's goal in the second half and Michael Tanke scored on a penalty kick to round out the Niles scoring.
Bridgman managed to chop the lead to 4-3 on back-to-back goals before Tanke's score.
Niles outshot the Bees 22-10 in the game and Viking goalkeeper Cory Coquillard had four saves.
The Vikings retun to action Thursday night for a Southwest Michigan Athletic Conference West Division match at home against Dowagiac at 6 p.m.
