UCLA get's Yellow in Final

Christine Sinclair scored two goals and Neil Lomax-less Portland beat UCLA 4-0 in the NCAA women's soccer national championship game on Sunday.
Angie Woznuk added a goal and an assist for the Pilots (24-0-2), who won their second title in three years. Portland beat Santa Clara 2-1 in the 2002 championship game.
This year, Portland became the only team other than North Carolina to finish an unbeaten season with a championship. The Tar Heels have won 10 of their 17 championships following undefeated seasons.
Sinclair, a member of the Canadian national team, set an NCAA single-season record with her first-half goals, giving her 39. Entering the game, Sinclair was tied SMU's Lisa Cole, who had 37 goals in 1987.
The senior was already the NCAA tournament's all-time goal scorer and finished her career with 25.
The Bruins (22-2-2), who outscored their first five tournament opponents 25-0, lost in the title game for the second straight year. They lost to Notre Dame on penalty kicks last year after playing to a 1-1 tie.
UCLA had shut out 17 of its previous 19 NCAA tournament opponents
