Some postgame pics from SFU women's big GNAC championship win today.
Someone in the NSL needs to bring in SFU goalkeeper Sarah Loewen (the championship MVP).
The graduating senior has excelled in NCAA and League1BC the last few years and is looking to go pro.

Well done to the crew at McMaster to get the pitch clear for the U SPORTS women's championship game.

When you've worked all year to reach the championship game, these conditions should have been considered unacceptable. How can you not clear the pitch?
The women's matches today delayed till a tractor comes.

Huge plaudits to the ground crew and Red Deer at Setters Place in Red Deer for day 3 of the CCAA Women's Soccer nationals.
Big snow dump here overnight!
Yet ALL the roads are clear, including side streets, and the city hasn't ground to a halt!

Sunny, but chilly, at UBC for Whitecaps training. Three different session groups going.
Some notes:
- Gauld not on pitch but don't panic, just load management
- Blackmon fully taking part again as he gets his fitness levels up
- White working in gym
- Intensity all round
