Barcelona, Santa Rosa United’s U14 Boys, came away with an inspiring victory in the Stanford Spring Classic Cup on Feb. 27 and 28. They emerged from bracket play with 2 wins and 1 loss, only to meet the team that had defeated them in the tournament final. With the score 0-0 through most of the championship contest, against a well-matched team from Palo Alto, Barca went ahead 1-0 with 7 minutes remaining. Palo Alto pressed hard but Barca held firm, and secured the victory. Congratulations boys!

Shock swept through bracket play without giving up a goal to Surf Blue (CAS), Black Diamond (UT), or TVSA (CAS). The quarter finals were determined by penalty kicks (4-3) against Washington Premier after a day of rain washed out the fields. In the Semi-Finals, Shock faced Marin FC and took it 2-1 in the first "golden goal" overtime period. The Final was played at the polo fields in Del Mar where Shock faced the host Surf White team, currently ranked #2 in the nation. Shock battled for the full 70 minutes but just came up short, falling  2-1 to Surf. Congratulations to Coach Paul Dixon and Shock for a tremendous showing in SoCal.

This past weekend, Santa Rosa United Academy teams (U8-U10) had unprecedented success in their NorCal State Cup competitions.  Five Academy teams made it to the NorCal State Cup Championship game, winning four titles and placing second in a fifth.  

The girls went undefeated -- with a tie and three wins.  They came from behind in the Championship game against El Dorado United to win 3-1.

Santa Rosa United Blizzard U13 Girls Gold took 1^st place at the Battle By The Bay this past weekend going undefeated.  The Blizzard defense did not allow a single goal to be scored on them the entire tournament.   In the Semi-finals against the MVLA Blue, the girls controlled the ball well and executed strongly to maintain possession a majority of the game.  In the Championship match, the Blizzard picked up where they left off with a great display of exceptional passing skills, excellent footwork and team communication.  Final score; Blizzard 4, Mill Valley Rockers 0.

The Blizzard showed a commanding presence going undefeated in the Morgan Hill tournament which found them facing the Central Santa Clara Valley Arsenal for the Championship. The outcome of this tournament final was not as close as the last time that these two determined teams met in a Championship match. Final score, Santa Rosa 3, Arsenal 1.

The U-10 Tremors won the Gold Division Championship at the Mustang Stampede Tournament. It was a great tournament for the Tremors with some great offense, defense, goalkeeping, passing, shots and overall team play. The Tremors scored 23 goals while giving up 3 and going 6-0 during the tournament. Congratulations to the U-10 TREMORS.

SRU Shock returned to the Cal Cup Championship game to defeat a very good Davis Velocity team and the triple digit temperatures in Sacramento this weekend. Looking to improve their loss to host San Juan in last years final, a very fit and determined Shock team outscored their opponents 13-1.  Thanks to Coach Paul’s extra conditioning and great parents, all the girls appeared to come through the weekend without any heat related problems. Shock will now enjoy a short break before returning to action on the pitch at the Pleasanton College Showcase. Lookout Ireland!
