BURLINGTON, Vt. — Utah Valley men's soccer alum Omar Yehya and Ballard FC will be competing for the USL League Two national championship against Vermont Green FC on Saturday in Burlington.

The match is slated for a 5 p.m. MDT kickoff, and will be streamed live on SportsEnginePlay.com. Vermont Green will be the hosts, with the game being played at Virtue Field, home of the 2024 NCAA champion Vermont Catamounts.

Yehya, a two-time All-WAC honoree and the WAC's leading goalscorer in 2024, concluded a highly successful two-year stint as a Wolverine last fall with a 12-goal campaign and a program record-tying 27 points. Yehya was named first team All-Region and became the program's fifth Academic All-American with his first team selection.

Yehya joined Ballard midway through the 2025 season and made an instant impact in his first appearance for the club. Yehya scored a goal on his debut against Lane United on June 27, then helped secure BFC's spot in the postseason with an assist against Portland Bangers on July 9. Among Yehya's teammates are a trio of former WAC rivals in Austin Brummett (San Diego State), Charlie Lanphier (Seattle U), and Stockton Short (Utah Tech).

Ballard FC, which is in its fifth season in the semi-pro USL League Two, is seeking the second national title in the club's history. Ballard posted a 9-3-2 regular season record to take the Northwest Division crown, and has won four games in a row to secure the Western Conference title and earn a spot in Saturday's title game.
