CHAMPIONSHIP CENTRAL

BOX SCORE

TAMPA, FLA. – It took 100 minutes of action to decide the winner of the second semifinal game between No. 1 USF and No. 4 UCF, and the host Bulls came out on top over their in-state rival, 2-1 (2OT), Friday evening at Corbett Stadium. USF will face second-seeded Tulsa in the championship finale on Sunday.

The two teams were tied 0-0 at the half and the score remained that way until Jesus Colombo’s unassisted goal gave the Knights a 1-0 lead in the 70th minute.
