Alex Lamontagne scored twice in her Vancouver debut as the Rise used a four-goal second-half explosion to cruise past the first-place Ottawa Rapid 5-1 in Northern Super League action Saturday at TD Place, as reported by CBC and TSN.
The Rise, who trailed or were level at the half, found their rhythm after the break, netting three goals in a 10-minute span early in the second half, then added the fourth to secure the blowout win. Anna Bout, Maithe Lopez, and Camila Reyes (on a penalty shot) also found the net for the Rise.

Canadian Press attribution and date of publication
Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status counts the distinct outlets we found asserting it — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
