This past weekend 56 of the best female soccer players from the ECNL’s Northwest Conference came to Trione Field to showcase their skills in front of US National Team and college coaches. The purpose of the weekend was for the girls to train and scrimmage with the best players from the conference’s eight elite clubs (Crossfire, DeAnza, Mustang, MVLA, Pleasanton, San Juan, Santa Rosa United and Washington Premier). The scouts will then pick 10-14 players from the Santa Rosa event and invite them to the ECNL National PDP later this year, where 100 girls from across the country (25 from each birth year 1994-1997) will participate.

The SRU Tremors won their second straight NorCal State Cup Championship with a definitive 2-0 win over MVLA Monsoon.

In playing many of the top teams from NorCal, SoCal, Washington, and Arizona, the Tremors finished their season going undefeated in their U13 age group for the entire year (32W, 3D, 0L since January, 2012).

During the season they were Champions of Davis Legacy Showcase (U13), Mustang Stampede (U13), SRU Harvest Wine Cup (U14), Placer Prestige Cup (U13), National Premier League Fall (U14), Mustang Winter Turf (U13) and NorCal State Cup - State Division.

Overall, including games at the U14 level, the U13 Tremors had 47 Wins, 7 draws, and 1 loss with 122 goals for and 29 goals against and a #4 National ranking. Great season ladies.

On behalf of everyone at SRU we congratulate this years College signings. 

SRU 2013 College Commitments:

The team achieved its second consecutive 3rd place NorCal State ranking with a hard fought 2-1 win over Pleasanton Rage to cap a successful season that saw them reach the Championship Match at all of the top 4 tournaments in the State:  Cal Cup, Mustang Stampede, Magic Cup, and Placer United Cup. 

To get to the coveted NorCal State Cup spot the team had to beat San Juan Sprits on a golden goal in the quarterfinals.  In the semifinals against MVLA Avalanche the Earthquakes created some excellent scoring opportunities in a thrilling match, but were astonishingly unable to find the back of the net, and wound up losing on the 7th round of penalty kicks.  The disappointment of the PK’s set up their State 2 Final versus Pleasanton Rage where the Earthquakes started the game with a relentless attack.  After numerous close calls at the start of the match, including a long bomb off the crossbar, the Earthquakes finally went up 1-0 mid-way through the first half with a tough angled shot into the side netting.  Minutes later however, a lone Pleasanton counterattack broke through to level the score.   

The Earthquakes continued their attacking ways in the second half, but were still seeking the breakthrough with only minutes left in regulation when the Earthquakes goalkeeper was pulled from goal to launch one of her signature long throw-ins close to the opponent’s goal.  Her long throw bounced through the whole defensive line before finding an Earthquake foot near the top of the 6 yard box for a quick redirect inside the far post that gave them the win.   

Congratulations Earthquakes!!!

The SRU girls U-11 Aftershocks won the final 2-1 in penalty kicks over Castro Valley.

They started their quest for the cup by defeating ACC Mavericks 3-0 in the quarterfinal round and followed that victory with a 2-1 win in penalty kicks over Bay Oaks.

The final was a very closely contested match with Castro Valley scoring first and the Aftershocks tying the game in the second half. The Aftershocks then continued to pound the net with shot after shot; however, their goalie made some excellent saves to take the match into over time. At the end of over time the two teams were still tied, and as a result, the Championship would be decided by penalty kicks. The Aftershocks won 2-1 in penalty kicks after four consecutive saves by the Aftershocks goalie. 

The girls had been working hard all season and earned their new title as the Bronze division State Champions!

It is with great excitement that we announce to you our acceptance into the Elite Clubs National League (ECNL) for the 2012-2013 season. 

Our girls Premier U14 through U18 teams will play in the Northwest Conference made up of six elite Northern California clubs and two elite Washington clubs.  Top teams in the conference standings will progress to National ECNL Playoffs.  Along with the conference play our teams will participate in multiple national showcase events providing fantastic college recruiting exposure. 

General Manager, Josh Sterling, believes “ This is a exciting time for Santa Rosa United. Our acceptance into the ECNL puts SRU back on the National Level map as a club and provides our players the best opportunities in the country to develop in a competitive environment, maximize college recruiting exposure and become scouted in a ECNL Player ID program for the National Team in their age group.”

President, Peter Colbert had this to add :  "This is a great honor for the SRU girls to be accepted into the ECNL league.  It reflects the many years of great coaching, hard work by all the SRU and the dedication of our players.  Not only does acceptance into the ECNL congratulate our current club but it is also a tribute to all the many years of success SRU has enjoyed.  I would like to thank all the coaches and players past and present for making this possible." continues ...

In January 2013 Trione Fields was visited by more than 22 college coaches from across the West Coast.  These college coaches spent all day Saturday running training sessions and evaluating the 100 players at our camp.  Every year the camp has been sold out weeks before it started and this had the college coaches excited.  The college coaches have been very impressed with the talent level at the camp and are thrilled at the recruiting opportunities.
