Enyeart's second goal makes it 3-0.
After a long day of holiday travel I didn't think I'd be alert enough to listen to the game tonight, but the Pilots kept it pretty interesting all night. 28 shots!

Sold out, for sure (sure looked that way from my seat behind the goal). I think the stats at UP will have it...

Just back from the game. Wow, the seats in section I were awesome. By far the best view we've had at Merlot. We sat in row C and it felt like you were on the field! The pilots were fun to watch tonight, especially the first half when they ran circles around the Lady Vols. Thanks again for the ticket advice guys.

No, didn't bring the camera tonight (and regretted it immediately). It was chilly and probably would have been tough to operate the controls...should have. Those first two goals were right there in front of me.
It's it's great seat, indeed.

wooooooooooooooo weeeeeeeeeeee!!!!
was at the game an am now watching it again on my dvr. the girls looked an played great all the way around. i was thoroughly impressed w/the vol's keeper. if she is not on the national team watch list she should be!! w/out her, the score very easily could have been 5-7/0. she was fantastic!!
watching the game now on the dvr, the commentators mentioned that the vol's coach is angela kelly [not sure if that is her married or maiden name], but she played at unc. they said that she spent a summer in portland playing summer soccer. an she has modeled her program after portland's, because, 'clive did it right'. a former unc player modeling her program after clive an not anson? what does that say?

Angela Kelly (her maiden name) played in the adidas Summer League for a year in 1997, I think.
I just got home, but I will put the goals and some highlights on YouTube in the a.m.
It was a good night to be a Pilot.

This was certainly a dominating performance in the first half. The rate at which we were putting shots on goal--whew. Good to see Tennessee acquit themselves in the second half with some truly dangerous chances, more possession on the offensive side of the field.
Amid the celebration I think we had some trouble finishing . . .I thought one of our players flat out missed an open goal from point blank in the second half.
Enyeart is dangerous . . .she is as good a striker I have seen this side of Megan Rapinoe and Sinclair . . .she continues to impress.
Hats off to what I thought was the best effort yet from Elli Reed. She played a tremendous game. Created chances the entire game. It may be only my impression but she truly seemed to be present on both sides of the pitch the entire game--defending time and again and running the length of the field to do so. She and Budge may be taking the same vitamins.
Jessica Tsao is truly playing well. Tsao is shutting down her side of the field, coming forward with speedy dangerous runs and skillful passing. I think it is only a matter of time before she puts one in.
For that matter the defense was impressive. Kelli and Emily were there usual steady selves . . .
Nice in goal performace by Kelsey.
Thanks again to the seniors for their marvelous four years of soccer. Enjiyed watching you.
Go Pilots. Beat UCLA!

I was impressed with how well Wozzie played on the defensive side of the ball.
Ultimately, Portland is really playing great team defense.

Yes. Hats of to Tennessee. By the second half, I've seen many defenses wither to the immense pressures of Pilot ball movement and attacks. But, with the exception of Enyeart's early 2nd goal....the Vols adjusted and countered in the last half. I thought they were a quality team. They continued fighting through the rest of the game. I did not sense that they ever waved the white flag mentally. That's a sign of a well coached team.
GO FOR 3 PILOTS!!!

The Vols keeper was impressive on her ability to stop shots, but before we elevate her to the national team there are a couple of things to consider. First her kicking ability was very suspect. Most of her kicks were low line drives that never made it to midfield. Second did you see the save Kelsey made on that corner kick? She showed an amazingly quick reaction. Since she's never had to save as many shots as the Tennessee keeper - and hopefully never will as a Pilot - we really have no idea how she would fare in that situation. Based on that one play though, it looks to me like she could give the Vol keep a run for her money.

I'm not so sure the Vols didn't mentally wave that white flag. At about the midway point of the second half, it really looked to me like the fight had been taken out of them. Portland also looked like they had taken their foot off the gas a bit.
