A pair of Richmond Girls Soccer alumni have helped the UBC Thunderbirds off to an impressive start to the Canada West season.
The nation's fourth ranked women's soccer team blanked the University of Northern British Columbia Timberwolves 4-0 last Sunday in Prince George.
Third-year defender Sydney Morrison came off the bench to earn an assist on Janine Frazao's second goal of the game in the 72nd minute which rounded out the scoring. The McMath secondary graduate was with the Vancouver Whitecaps U18 Elite Girls Program prior to enrolling at UBC.
The Thunderbirds' starting 11 includes forward Taryn Lim. The McNair secondary graduate enjoyed an outstanding collegiate career at Langara before heading to the Point Grey Campus.
The Thunderbirds remain unbeaten on the season and improve to 3-0-3 without having surrendered a goal to its opponents for the fourth straight game.
Up next for UBC is a pair of games at home against the University of Manitoba today and tomorrow. Both matches are set to kickoff at 5 p.m. at David Sidoo Field.
