Delaney Baie Pridham scored twice to lead Ottawa Rapid FC to a 3-0 victory over Vancouver Rise FC on Thursday night in the Northern Super League.
Pridham opened the scoring in the 11th minute, deflecting a cross from Melanie Forbes to give Ottawa (2-1-1) the early lead at TD Place Stadium.
The 27-year-old Pridham's clinical finish in the 51st — her league-leading third goal of the season — doubled the lead.
Substitute Julia Benati made it 3-0 with a shot into the top of the net after a give-and-go with Desiree Scott in the 75th.
Vancouver (2-2-1) held 54 per cent of possession but Ottawa dominated the shot attempts 14-7, including 7-3 on target.
Next up, Vancouver hosts Halifax Tides FC on Wednesday and Ottawa entertains Montreal Roses FC on May 25.
