Gee-Gees are World Champions

[LeadingEdgeBoomer]

I always hope that all the uOttawa teams win conference and/or national championships. A world title --now that is rare. They did Canada and uOttawa proud!!

This morning the undefeated Gee-Gees won the first ever Women's World Cup of University Soccer. They defeated Paulista University of Brazil 1-0 in the Gold Medal game.

Mikayla Morton scored the only goal on a header less than 2 minutes into the game. She was the OUA leading goal scorer this season. It was the only goal scored on Paulista during the whole tournament.

Note: Kudos to the game play-by -play guy on the FISU web cast. He had a British accent and like most Brits he really knew what the @#$% a Gee-Gee is.

Gee-Gee Trinity Espirit was named MVP of the tournament. Amazing when you consider that she is a teenager rookie with the Gee-Gees.

The tournament was played in JinJiang, China.
