The 6-2-2 University of Manitoba women’s soccer team is starting
to play like one of the best teams in the country. Led by head coach
Vanessa Martinez Lagunas from Mexico and Canada West’s leading
scorer Bruna Mavignier from Brazil, the Bison women have become
one of the teams to beat in Western Canada. A lot of fans aren’t quite
sure how Martinez Lagunas and Mavignier actually found the U of
M, but it doesn’t really matter. They’re here and they’re superb. l
