Girls U18 Champions
Good Job Girls!

The Girls U18 team completed their participation in the Orange County Kickoff Classic with a tough loss in PK’s after holding the Cypress Elite team to a scoreless tie in regulation time playing a “man” down 25 minutes of the second half.

Earlier in the morning, the girls tied the RFC Matrix team in a scoreless game to advance to the final. The team missed four players from their starting line up and still managed two great games.

On Saturday play, the team beat the Central United Valley Heat (No. Cal) 5-1 and the Ohana FC team based out of Henderson, Nevada by a score of 4-2.

On Sunday’s game, Ashley Gallegos stepped in and played GK for the games and did a tremendous job in the final holding the Cypress Elite and RFC Matrix teams to shut outs. A high fever kept regular GK Chanel Abelon from playing where she has done a great job for the team. 

Ashley was helped by one of the stingiest defenses around led by Co-Captain Kendra Wilson and Silvia Sanchez. Gabriella Carbajal and Aubrey Jensen, two new additions to the team have learned the system well and have been playing exceptional soccer since joining the team.

Midfield players; Angie Juarez, Martha Zamora, Cindy Cruz, Alexandra Campos, Taylor Kincherlow, Renee Lane and Lauren Swan played great soccer the entire weekend as they have done throughout the season.


The forwards were led by Co-Captain Estephany Monroy with Nailah Johnson doing a great job and complimented by the playing of Lucy Sanchez.  The team missed the aggressive playing of Sarai Evans for the weekend.

This was the first weekend the girls played without their best friend and stopper Lindsey Hetz. Lindsey has moved on to the “college life” at Northern Arizona University after leading the team for the past 5 years.

The past few weeks have seen the girls winning the Goya Cup, Rangers Classic and Copa Pumas tournaments and are looking forward to the start of play in Coast Soccer League.

Pumas San Bernardino at Copa Tucson hosted by Atlas
Great job boys!

3 Pumas teams were selected to participate in the first International Copa Tucson 2008.   Players from our U12, U13, U14, U15, U16 and U17 were chosen to participate representing our Academy program in the Copa Tucson Tournament.  The tournament will feature teams from the Atlas Academy programs from Mexico and USA.  The boys will travel first class in a Deluxe Motorcoach provided by our sponsor, Coach Skyline Inc.  The San Bernardino Pumas teams were invited after the impressive showing of our ’90’s boys at the 2nd Copa Zorros tournament in Escondido, CA where our team was a finalist in that age group.

The Boys U16 and U18 came home with first place wins.

 

 

B14 Cal Cup Champions!
Great job boys, we are proud of you!

The Pumas B14 team came home with the Championship trophy with an impressive 6-0 record outscoring their opponents 28 to 1 along the way.

With only one sub during the two weekends of California Cup games the boys showed they were for real and won praises for their play from opponents and spectators at the San Bernardino Soccer Complex who stopped by and wished the boys success.

The boys, coached by Pumas Director of Coaching Jose Santana played to near perfection only allowing one goal while scoring 28 goals in their six game run to the Championship.

Champions are made on the field!

With Bernie on goal, Pumas played Wichita, Kansas’ Magia Soccer Club. Bernie made a good impression on the Pumas UNAM coaches earning a shutout on his first complete game with the Mexican side.
 
For their last game, Bernie played the second half against the Tigres Academy team from Houston.  Bernie made some great saves and kept his goal average at 0.00 during his play at Dallas Cup.
 
Bernie has been invited to go and train with the Pumas UNAM squad during the summer and was asked to join their youth program in Mexico City, Mexico.
 
Great Job Bernie!
