90+4' VERMONT SCORES!!!! After being totally outplayed most of the second half, Vermont throwing everything at the Salmon Bay goal. They get a corner. The ball knocked out then sent back in with a high arcing ball. Louisa Thomsen is there with an absolute banger of a volley into the top of the net.

If you've never been, Interbay is a remarkable setting. The nearly 30 years of history in that stadium includes fantastic SPU matches, D2 final fours, PCSL Seattle Hibernian for a while, Ballard FC, USL era Sounders Open Cup 02 R16 against SJE, & now Salmon Bay FC winning a W title. It's awesome.
