November 02, 2006 | Women's Soccer
Princeton junior women's soccer midfielder Diana Matheson is on the other side of the globe during her fall break, competing with her Canadian National Team in the Peace Queen Cup tournament in South Korea.
Matheson, Princeton's leading scorer with eight goals and five assists on the year, has played all 90 minutes of all three games so far in the tournament. She'll suit up next against Team USA in the final, Friday at 11:30 p.m. ET.
The Canadians are one of eight teams in the competition, including Brazil, South Korea and Italy with Canada in Group A and the U.S., Australia, Denmark and the Netherlands in Group B. Canada swept group play with a 3-2 win over Italy last Saturday, a 3-1 win over South Korea Monday and a 4-2 win over Brazil Wednesday.
The Americans tied Denmark and defeated Australia and the Netherlands on their way to the final.
