University of Wisconsin women's soccer 2008 recruit Paige Adams helped Canada to a first place finish in the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) Women's Under-20 Championship in Puebla, Mexico.

Canada beat the U.S. 1-0 to win the championship. With the win, Adams and the Canadian Under-20 national team qualifies to play in the 2008 FIFA Under-20 Women's World Cup, which runs from Nov. 19 to Dec. 7 in Chile.

"We are really pleased with Paige's performance," said UW women's soccer coach Paula Wilkins. "It is always exciting to have one of our players represent her country at the highest level."

Adams was one of two Badger recruits playing in the tournament. Laurie Nosbusch represented the U.S. on the Under-18 national team.
