Two UCLA women’s soccer players snuck behind the team’s beloved skipper, drenching her in what looked like lime-green Powerade.
It was a common celebration for a prestigious milestone. The Bruins didn’t claim just another victory in their undefeated 2017 season. It was career win No. 300 for coach Amanda Cromwell.
And it was accomplished in dominant fashion.
No. 1 UCLA (11-0-1, 4-0 Pac-12) exited Tempe, Arizona with a 3-0 victory against Arizona State (4-6-2, 1-2-1) after another offensive explosion.
Junior forward Hailie Mace, who earned yet another Pac-12 Player of the Week, gave the Bruins the early lead 19 minutes into the first half.
