This past Saturday the U-10 girls, in their first ever tournament, played great and started their California United careers with a Championship at the Ventura County Soccer Club Tournament this past weekend. The game started off deadlocked as both teams went back and forth on the attack with neither side able to put it in the net. The first goal of the game was put in by Alondra Leon off an assist by Lizbeth Mendez. Sealing the game with the second and final goal of the game was Sara Diaz, making the final score 2-0 for California United behind a great defensive shutout with Fiona Cabral as goalie. This was a two weekend tournament in Oxnard with the semis and finals this past weekend as a run up to the start of the Spring Season. The U-10 girls are officially off and running on the local soccer scene. Only a few months from the time the team was assembled these ladies have put the county on notice, they are ready to compete right now. Congratulations to the coaching staff and good luck to the entire California United family of teams as we look to kick off the Spring Season in the next couple of weeks.
