There will be a new champion crowned in OCAA women’s soccer action as the Durham Lords dethroned the Humber Hawks 1-0 in the second Belairdirect OCAA Women’s Soccer Championship semi-final today at the Ontario Soccer Centre in Vaughan.

Humber goal keeper Rosemary Ormeno provided the brightest highlight of the first half, stealing a glorious scoring opportunity away from the Lords on a penalty kick. Heading into the change rooms at the first half there was no score.

Daniela Calleri found the back of the net for the Lords in the second half on a free kick. Ormeno was able to touch the shot enough to deflect it off of the crossbar, but was unable to change the direction enough to keep the ball from crossing the goal line.

Daniela Calleri of Durham and Brittany Szcerbakow of the Hawks were named the Players of the Game.

The Durham Lords now advance to the Belairdirect OCAA Women’s Soccer Championship gold medal game to face the Fanshawe Falcons after missing the final four last season. The championship game will kick off at 3:00pm.

Humber will play for bronze at 9:00am Saturday morning and will face their crosstown rival Sheridan Bruins.
