#3 VIU Mariners @ #2 Douglas Royals – Saturday October 30, 12:30pm | WATCH HERE

The women’s PACWEST semi-final pits the Royals and Mariners facing each other with a berth in the gold medal game on the line.

During the regular season the Royals swept the Mariners in their three meetings outscoring them 6-2 with a pair of shutouts courtesy of Elisha Machado.

Offensively Amanda Hila torched the Mariners scoring four times with a pair of game winners.  Christine Singh and Kya Clero tallied the others for the Royals.

The Mariners two goals in the seasonal series came in one game when Cara Dunlop and Kate Reynolds scored.  Both goals came in their final meeting which was last weekend.

This is the first time since the Royals and Mariners have met in the postseason since 2017 when the Royals captured a 2-1 victory and then went onto win gold.   The winner of Saturday’s match-up will face the Capilano Blues in the PACWEST title game.
