Buchan Bakers win their first state league championship with a 3-2 extra time victory over Norselander Vikings at Lower Woodland Park. Jim McGilloway gets the winner. Twice the Bakers were forced to pull a goal back. Hewitt McCloskey canceled out Tommy Grieve’s opener and Bill Phillips sent the game into extra time after Erling Hansen put the Vikings in front again.

Cruz Azul, featuring five Mexican internationals, drubs Seattle Mitre Eagles, 9-0, in the first leg of the CONCACAF Champions Cup. The Eagles’ flights are delayed and connections missed. Instead of arriving the night before, their bus arrives at the stadium 20 minutes before kickoff, in 100-degree heat.

A gritty road performance from Seattle Pacific, highlighted by Seth Russell's goal midway through the second half, separates the Falcons from Montana State Billings, 1-0, to give the Falcons their first outright GNAC championship since 2001. SPU was coming off its first loss in 16 games, 1-0 at Northwest Nazarene Oct. 30.

Washington wins its eighth in a row, completing a sweep of the Bay Area schools by beating No. 18 Stanford, 3-1, at Husky Soccer Stadium. The No. 5-ranked Huskies put away the Cardinal when Darwin Jones converts a turnover into his eighth goal of the season.

For the second year in a row Seattle is unable to generate much of an attack in the MLS Cup final at Toronto, but there are no game-saving heroics this time around. Toronto gets second-half goals from Jozy Altidore (67') and Victor Vasquez (90+4') to win the championship, 2-0, before 30,584 frozen fans at BMO Field. Stefan Frei makes nine saves to keep the Reds at bay before Altidore breaks through. Sounders FC had not allowed a goal in six previous regular season and playoff matches. They are out-shot 22-7. Temperature at first kick is 34 degrees and dropping.

Just when the Seattle Sounders' season was tracking upward, it begins devolving with a 3-1 home loss to lowly Dallas. Wolfgang Rausch scores two penalties versus 10-man Seattle, which loses goalkeeper Jack Brand in the 13th minute after he overtly protests referee Ian Foote's first penalty decision. Big screen replays indicate Ian Bridge's foul occurred two yards outside the box. Brand is judged to have pushed Foote. In the dying minutes, Bridge is sent off for his second caution. These are the first career red cards for Brand and Bridge.
