November 30, 2008 - The scene at UCLA’s Drake Stadium was a bit surreal. The field was shrouded in fog (providing an interesting backdrop) and the Bruins dominated in majestic fashion. Since it was a holiday weekend, the decisive victory was played before a sparse crowd (though I was there showing support!)
With the UCLA game the last match of the weekend, the final four teams are now set. As expected, the number 1 seeds all made it through. The semifinals match-ups, which will be played in Cary, NC next weekend, look like this:
UCLA vs. UNC
Stanford vs. Notre Dame
Notre Dame remains undefeated after cruising past Florida 2-0, ending the Seminoles quest for a fourth straight College Cup appearance.
UCLA DOMINATED the Duke Blue Devils last night 6-1 to reach their sixth straight Final Four. Junior Kristina Larsen was the star of the second half, scoring her team-leading 12th and 13th goals of the season, but the whole team looked impressive with precision passing, speed and confidence.
The downside of the evening? Lauren Cheney being carried off the field late in the second half after a totally unneccessary tackle by Duke. Hope she’s okay.
