The Lamorinda U15 Girls competed in the Davis College Showcase July 10-12. They opened with a convincing 3-0 win over the Bay Oaks (Oakland/Alameda). Then, after a brief rest, they retook the field against the well-known LA Slammers FC. Despite a considerable size difference, the girls used their possession-style offense - no small task - to find success. They possessed the ball over 75 percent of the game and finished their opportunities for an impressive 3-1 victory over the Slammers. Next, the girls faced a tough, dominant team from Davis, Calif. - a team they had faced many times, but never beat. They controlled the game, in a well-balanced match, and came away with a 1-1 draw, which allowed the LMSC girls to advance to the playoffs. In the playoffs, they faced their biggest challenge yet: the prominently ranked LA Galaxy Blues. The girls fought hard, but fell 2-1 in a very tight semi-final match. The Galaxy Blues went on to win the tournament. The LMSC U15 Girls team came away with a 2-1-1 record and scored eight goals against some of the most talented teams in the U.S. They also impressed several college coaches.
