San Jose, Calif. — Katie Johnson broke a tie in the 75th minute and Southern California won the NCAA women’s soccer title on Sunday, beating top-ranked West Virginia, 3-1, at Avaya Stadium.

The second-seeded Trojans (19-4-2) also won the College Cup in 2007.

The Mountaineers (23-2-2) lost for the first time since a 1-0 setback to Georgetown on Sept. 18. West Virginia had a 17-game unbeaten streak snapped and allowed three goals for the first all season.

Johnson, who also had the winning goal in USC’s 1-0 semifinal victory over Georgetown on Friday, was wide open in front of the net when Leah Pruitt took a pass up the left sideline, beat defender Easther Mayi Kith, and delivered a perfect cross. Johnson simply rolled the ball into the goal to the right of goalkeeper Rylee Foster.

Johnson scored again off an assist from Nicole Molen in the 87th minute.

Chapecoense President Laid to Rest

Chapeco, Brazil — The president of Brazilian football team Chapecoense was buried on Sunday as fans paid their final tributes, trying to put behind them the worst moment in the club’s history.

Sandro Pallaoro was on the plane that crashed almost a week ago as the club was traveling to Colombia to play the first of two games to determine the Copa Sudamericana champion — the No. 2 club tournament in Latin America.

The crash killed 71 of 77 people on board, including 19 players. The dead were honored on Saturday at Chapeco’s stadium, with burials taking place across the country. None of the players were from the small southern Brazilian city.

SkiingGut Wins Super-G

Lake Louise, Alberta — Lara Gut won what the weather turned into a World Cup super-G sprint Sunday at Lake Louise.

The Swiss ski star claimed a third career super-G victory at the Alberta resort after previous wins in 2013 and 2014.

The start was lowered due to weather a second straight day. Sunday’s snow-globe conditions turned the super-G — already a shorter distance than downhill with more turns — into a dash of just over a minute.

The race was also delayed 75 minutes to groom and reset the top of the course.

Faivre Gets First Win

Val d’Isere, France — Mathieu Faivre led a fierce French challenge on first-run leader Marcel Hirscher of Austria to win a World Cup giant slalom on Sunday.

Faivre secured the fastest second run to beat Val d’Isere specialist Hircher by 0.49 seconds.

Faivre’s first career World Cup victory denied Hirscher a fifth GS win on this course since 2009.

France team leader Alexis Pinturault was third, trailing 1.11 behind the winner. Teammates Thomas Fanara and Victor Muffat-Jeandet placed fourth and fifth as a noisy crowd roared on the home team.
