Langara Falcons @ VIU Mariners – Sunday October 23, 3:00pm | WATCH HERE
These two teams will wrap the regular season on Sunday afternoon on the Island after the Mariners took down the Falcons 3-0 on Saturday.
The Falcons backline played tough during the first half, not allowing the first-place Mariners much. However, in the 21st minute Olivia Mazurenko found the back of the net with Shea Battie and Jade Dillabough getting the assists. The goal was the only one of the first half and would stand up to be the game winner.
In the second half Mya Creed scored in the 57th minute followed by a goal from Courtney Ingram in the 83rd minute to put the game out of reach.
Keeper Melanie Osborne wasn’t tested often and made one save earning the shutout.
Regardless of Sunday’s outcome the Mariners will press on to the PACWEST championship tournament. With a win on Sunday, they would clinch first place and an automatic bye into the gold medal game. The Falcons will try and spoil that and win their first of the season.
