CARY, N.C. (AP) — Maricarmen Reyes scored a go-ahead goal off a rebound in the 107th minute and top-seeded UCLA rallied past North Carolina 3-2 on Monday night to win its second women’s soccer championship in program history. UCLA (22-2-1) trailed 2-0 late in the second half before scoring two goals in the final 10 minutes to force overtime. The Bruins became the first women’s soccer program in NCAA history to win the title with a first-year head coach. UCLA’s only other women’s soccer title came in 2013 — also in extra time. North Carolina (20-5-1) was looking to join the 2012 Tar Heels and 2013 UCLA as the only teams to defeat three No.
