DAY IN SPORTS: N.D. TIES CRESPI ON FOLK'S LATE KICK.Byline: Daily News The Notre Dame Notre Dame IPA: [nɔtʁ dam] is French for Our Lady, referring to the Virgin Mary. In the United States of America, Notre Dame High boys' soccer team got its payback. It wasn't a win, but it felt like one to the Knights. Nick Folk Nick Folk (born November 5, 1984 in Hollywood, California) is an American football placekicker in the NFL. Folk played college football at the University of Arizona and was selected by the Dallas Cowboys during the 2007 NFL draft. scored on a penalty kick in the final minute of regulation as Notre Dame of Sherman Oaks and Crespi of Encino tied 1-1 Monday in Mission League play. Last season, the Knights lost to Crespi in the final minute and in overtime. ``It was like football,'' said Folk, also a kicker on the football team who orally committed to Arizona over the weekend. ``It felt like having to kick the game-winning field goal.'' Folk had his opportunity because Notre Dame defender Zach Migdal was tripped up going to the goal. He was running even with two Crespi players when his feet tangled with Shane Fierst. Nobody scored in two 10-minute overtimes.

The Warriors, ranked second by the Daily News, had the majority of the scoring chances but couldn't get the ball into favorable position near the penalty area. ``We had our chances in the first half. The second half wasn't so good. We were playing kick ball,'' said Westlake (8-3-2, 3-0-1) senior Lauren Baer, who had a near-miss on a second-half header saved by Pioneers'(6-2-3, 1-0-3) goalkeeper Andrea Fowler. ``It was frustrating. But they're a very physical team and we couldn't play our game.'' Much-improved Simi Valley has made a habit of tying league opponents and Monday's draw was far bigger than earlier ties against fellow contenders Moorpark and Thousand Oaks. The tying mentality is keeping the Pioneers close to Westlake, which went 10-0-2 in league matches last season and has an eight-match unbeaten streak. The two teams meet in a rematch on Jan. 23 at Simi Valley. - Chris Cocoles --Chatsworth 11, Birmingham 0: Lindsey Redlin and Jenna Fodor each scored four goals for the Chancellors (8-7, 3-0) in the West Valley League victory over the host Patriots of Van Nuys. --El Camino Real 5, Cleveland 0: Kandice McLaughlin and Samantha Spencer each scored twice as the visiting Conquistadores (9-1-1, 3-0) defeated the Cavaliers of Reseda in a West Valley League game.
