BERKELEY - Name a record and there is a chance it fell Thursday afternoon as No. 20 California routed UCLA, 7-0, at Edwards Stadium in what was the biggest conference victory in California history.
Pac-12 Player of the Year candidate and potential All-American Arielle Ship scored her second hat trick of the season and added an assist for good measure to lead the Golden Bear (13-4-2, 6-3-0 Pac-12) attack to the seven-goal victory, matching the 1991 squad that earned a 7-0 win against Oregon State on Sept. 21, 1991 for the biggest conference win.
Sophomore Emily Boyd etched her name in the Cal record book by earning her 11th shutout of the season, matching the California single-season mark that was last set in 1996 by Karen Cook.
