The Miramonte girls' soccer team claimed the Silver Division Championship at the Tri-Valley Classic in Danville. The ninth annual Tri-Valley Classic hosted teams from around the Bay Area, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
In their first match, Miramonte played Antioch High School. Miramonte jumped out to a lead in the second half, when sophomore midfielder Coco Pearce scored off a cross pass from freshman forward Megan Reid. The game ended in a draw, 1-1.
In the second contest, the Mats overpowered Deer Valley to win 5-0. Reid, Pearce, sophomore Sophie Fuller, and junior midfielder Katherine Fearing spearheaded the scoring in game two. Victory against Deer Valley helped preserve the opportunity of claiming the Silver Division crown.
Day two pitted Miramonte against a strong team from Los Angeles, Alemany. Miramonte buckled down and played a solid defensive match. Freshman goalie Mali Tehaney recorded 10 saves. The final score was another draw, 0-0.
Miramonte played their fourth and final match against Santa Cruz. The Mats opened up the scoring on a set piece as Pearce crossed the ball to Tasia Robbins who slammed it between the posts for a 1-0 advantage. Santa Cruz countered in the 66th minute off a deflected ball. Miramonte freshman midfielder Li would score off a corner delivered by Pearce with four minutes to go in the match. Tehaney and a strong defense preserved the victory and the Silver Division Championship for Miramonte.
