Women’s soccer team to play for bronze at national championship

The University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) will play for the bronze medal at the U Sports Canadian national soccer championship at Acadia University in Wolfville, Nova Scotia.

The Ridgebacks women’s soccer team went to overtime tied 1-1 against the Laval Rouge et Or in a tense semi-final match Friday evening, but the Quebec conference champions notched the only goal of extra time to claim the victory.

The Ridgebacks will play for the national bronze medal on Sunday, November 13 at 11 a.m. ET. UOIT will face the Queen's Gaels in a rematch of the Ontario University Athletics (OUA) title game on November 6 that saw the Ridgebacks earn the university's first-ever provincial varsity sports title.
