UBC Athletics was great when Martha Piper was UBC president. Martha truly cared. She got it. It's been downhill since. Hope that changes.

2’ - Ozzie with a peach of a tackle on Manneh in the middle of the park. He is good at that tackling thing. #VANvSEA

Tentative early exchanges here.

Seattle looking to sit a deep and frustrate the home side. #VWFC #VANvSEA

by Vancouver Whitecaps via twitter 5/16/2015 11:10:54 PM
Alonso chases down Manneh from behind. He'll be doing plenty of tracking back today if these early passages are any indication

by Matt Pentz via twitter 5/16/2015 11:11:04 PM
3’ - And the first corner of the match goes to Vancouver as Brad puts in a nice tackle but it goes out? Ok.

by Matt Pentz via twitter 5/16/2015 11:13:57 PM

Me, too “@thegoalkeeper : Methinks there will be more than one goal in this game. #VANvSEA ”

9’ - Vancouver on the offensive now trying to get one back. Foul called on the near side as Remick puts a guy on the deck. FK chance…
