After a full month of rain outs CU was back in action. The U-14B took on the VC Galaxy in what ended up being a shootout. Julio Negrete and Daniel Sandoval were the standouts this game as they each had 2 goals in the 5-4 loss. Unlike the boys, this was a defensive nail biter the whole game for the U 14-G team as they took on the VC Galaxy. With only one goal scored, CU was always in it and applied plenty of pressure on the defense, but ultimately lost 1-0. The U-13B team also took on the VC Galaxy this weekend in a tough loss with a final score of 5-0. The U-12 girls looked extremely well this Saturday in their 8-1 win over USA as their passing was on point the entire game resulting in a number of touch goals. Leading the charge was Kari Terrazas with a hat trick ( 3 goals ) followed by Marlene Gonzales with 2 goals and Brooke Nunez, Jessica Rodriguez and Livi Cabral with 1 goal each. It was a great team effort with Fatima Alvarado, Miley Tello and Marlene Gonzales each with an assist and the defense looking extremely strong as well. The U-10G were in action versus Oxnard Wave which resulted in a 8-3 loss. The offense was lead by Sara Diaz who ended the day with a hat trick ( 3 goals ) for CU. After a tough first half that saw CU down by quite a few goals, the team responded well by making adjustments and playing hard until the end. The U-10B came out strong against the Santitos and scored often in the 6-1 victory. The scoring leader for the day was Jesus Canchola with 4 while Christian Solis and Jayden Guzman had 1 goal each in this big win for the young team. |
