The Lamorinda United U13 boys repeated their success at the Walnut Creek Summerfest tournament on Aug. 23-24. The team won the tournament last year and finished as champions again this year.
Lamorinda came out firing on the first day, defeating Pittsburg Youth 3-0 and Alternativo Futbol Brasil 10-0. The next day United's possession-style game earned them a 1-0 victory over their rivals, Walnut Creek Arsenal.
After going 3-0 in pool play, the team earned the top seed in its bracket. After giving up a goal minutes into the game, the U13 boys fought back to equalize by halftime. United dominated the second half and scored a second goal to beat the Richmond Sol Cobras 2-1.
