UPDATE !!! FEB 11TH   ...    U11 GIRLS UNITED IN FINAL FOUR !!!

The U11G Castro Valley United advanced to the State Cup semi-finals with a thrilling penalty kick shootout win against the Vacaville Thunderbirds last Saturday morning.  The quarterfinal match ended 1-1 in regulation and went two scoreless 10-minute golden goal overtimes before it was settled with penalty kicks.  The shootout was tied 2-2 after the first five rounds.  Castro Valley won in the sixth round with the United keeper stopping Vacaville’s shot and Castro Valley converting their final kick.  Castro Valley now faces Santa Rosa on Saturday in Morgan Hill at 9:00am in the semi-finals with the winner advancing to Sunday’s State Cup Championship Match.

Congratulations also go out to the U12G Fury and U13G Green Machine.  Both teams won their round of 16 matches on Saturday, Fury 2-1 over San Carlos and Green Machine 2-0 over San Juan Spirit White  to advance to Sunday’s quarterfinals.  Unfortunately, both the Fury and Green Machine’s State Cup run ended Sunday as the U12G lost to 2-0 to Mustang Mavericks and the U13G lost 2-1 to Mustang Fury.  Both Mustang teams are the defending State Cup champions with the Fury also being the defending Region IV champion.  Both the Castro Valley Fury and Green Machine will be seeded teams in next year’s CYSA State Cup because of their quarterfinal finishes.
