League-leading scorer Janine Frazao of Port Moody knocked in a pair of goals to guide the UBC Thunderbirds to a 2-0 triumph over the Alberta Pandas in a Canada West university women's soccer contest Friday at Thunderbird Park.

Frazao headed home a goal in the 15th minute off a Rachel Ramsden cross, then struck for her 10th marker of the campaign on a volley off another Ramsden feed to add insurance in the 44th minute.

"Janine's a wonderful player and she just keeps getting better," raved T-birds head coach Mark Rogers. "I could go on and on about her but she's just a pleasure to coach."

PORT COQUITLAM

Melissa Morris and Gukran Sekhon netted a goal apiece as the Port Coquitlam Hornets nabbed their fourth girls U-15 Silver division win of the season via a 2-0 blanking Sunday of the Surrey Fire at Gates Park.

Hornets 'keeper Natalie Cramer scooped her second shutout of the campaign, while Jackie Kohl and Trang Ledo turned in outstanding performances.

A Danielle Nickel goal proved pivotal as the PoCo Xtreme played to a 1-1 deadlock in a girls U-17 Silver 'A' contest Sunday.

Other standouts for the Xtreme included Maddie Richards, Erica Furnie and Christie Chan.

COQUITLAM METRO-FORD

Call-up goalie Brittany Bligh was instrumental as Coquitlam Metro-Ford Synergy knotted Burnaby's Cliff Avenue 1-1 in a women's Under-21 showdown Sunday at Byrne Creek turf field.

Synergy defenders Marla McIlveen and Suzanne Coulson were also solid, as were midfielders Shyan Cucultess and Kayla Mobilio.

PORT MOODY

A Katherine Ross marker came in vain as the Port Moody Nitro were spilled 3-1 by the Coquitlam Metro-Ford Diablos in a girls U-17 Gold game Sunday.

Forward Tia Edgar and midfielder Melanie Mayede each turned in strong showings in a losing effort.
