I've received a number of queries over the weekend about webcasting.
Acadia did not webcast the AUS championships. There is no publically available video for that tournament beyond my badly filmed and hastily edited highlight packs.
The good news--and news that will spare you from further highlight packs--is that according to Canada West, the CIS championships will be streamed on SSN.
SSN doesn't have the games on its schedule yet, but Canada West are a pretty authoritative source, so it's somewhat safe to assume I'll have two hands next weekend to live-blog.
And while we're at it, may as well plug the CIS live-blogs and preview shows: Dal Soccer Live will live-blog the CIS nationals, hopefully with a moderately better connection than we had at Acadia this weekend. I believe Bill McLean will be previewing the tournament on CKDU some time between 10:30 and noon on Tuesday. The live-blogs will be cross-posted along with daily wrap-ups to the CIS Blog and Haligonia.ca, as well as dalgazette.com.

Cape Breton Capers win AUS Gold
By Dylan Matthias
The Capers are back.
Rookie Devon Pierre scored the only goal of a sloppy game to give the Cape Breton Capers another AUS title.
"I was just in the right spot at the right time," Pierre said.
"Devon is a local kid," said Capers coach Ness Timmons. Pierre is from Albert Bridge, N.S., near Sydney. "A bit off the radar--not a provincial player or anything--but a quality athlete...we think that she'll have a fabulous career in the AUS."

Live: AUS Women's Gold Medal: UPEI Panthers v. Cape Breton Capers
Yesterday's blog went down in a blaze of disappointment in the middle of a penalty shoot-out. And today's may do the same thing. We hope it won't. If you do, too, you can follow the AUS gold medal final between UPEI and Cape Breton from 2:30pm this afternoon.
The possibly-functional blog is after the jump.

Women's Soccer Semi-final Wrap-up: Favourites In Trouble
There will be some fresh blood at nationals this year. Trinity Western and Dalhousie both lost semi-final draws Saturday afternoon. The Canada West favourites Alberta were done in by UBC. The UFV Cascades will continue a miracle season in PEI.
In AUS play, the Dalhousie Tigers are out of the Atlantic University Sport women's soccer playoffs. Goals by Kyla Cunningham in the 11th minute and Nicholle Morrison in the 19th minute gave the Capers a 2-0 win and another berth at nationals for a young team that doesn't look so young.
