By Rori Eddie

Memphis--Pack your bags and get your tickets punched. The Christian Brothers University women’s soccer team will travel to La Jolla, CA, as one of the final four participants of the NCAA Division II Women’s Soccer Championships.

In a "Battle of the Unbeatens," the 21-0 Lady Bucs will square off with the 22-0 Lady Ravens of Franklin Pierce College, Saturday, November 30th at 5 PM (Pacific Time) on the campus of University of California-San Diego.

No. 1 Franklin Pierce used a 1-0 overtime victory over Lock Haven in the Quarters and 2-1 overtime victory over Merrimack in the Regional to earn a Final Four draw. Meanwhile, the No. 2 Lady Bucs have cruised to their Final Four lock on the heels of a 3-1 Regional victory over Barry University and a 7-1 pounding of North Florida in the Quarters.

The host Lady Tritons of UC San Diego will pair with Northern Kentucky University in the second game of the double-header at 7:30 PM (Pacific Time). The match-up marks a rematch of last year’s championship, which UC San Diego won 2-1 over NKU.

The winners of both contests will advance to the NCAA Division II Women’s Soccer Championship Game to be played Sunday, December 2nd at 1 PM.
