GU13 State Cup


 The GU13 girls began State Cup in Lancaster as well, with 2 games on Saturday and 1 game on Sunday. They had quite a showing...winning 3-0 over LB Havoc, 3-0 over LA Premier and 2-0 over Westside Breakers to advance to the 2nd weekend.

 Unfortunately, Taylor spent most of the weekend fighting a sore throat and fever, but battled through.  She took a long nap with May in between games and rested and hydrated as much as possible.  What a trooper!!
I wasn't able to see this Saturday's game against Redondo Beach because  I was in Lancaster with Allison's team, but they pulled off a 1-0 victory to advance to today's Round of 32.  
We were up again early this morning for a very tough opponent, South Bay Force.  Although their team got a red card early on and had to play a "man down" we still couldn't take advantage and lost a tough one 3-1 to end our season.  It was a tough way to go out, but the girls have exciting futures ahead and even better friendships!!
