Freshman striker Casey Nogueira scored the game-winner in the 84th minute and senior forward Heather O'Reilly added the insurance goal just over two minutes later as No. 1-ranked North Carolina edged third-ranked UCLA 2-0 in the 2006 NCAA Women's College Cup semifinals at SAS Soccer Park. Carolina advances to the NCAA title game Sunday at 12:30 p.m. against Notre Dame, which defeated Florida State 2-1 in Friday night's second semifinal match.
