United. Their second game was a 2-1 win against Atwater Patriots with both goals

the team battled a tough and physical team in Solano Sporting but a goal in the
dying minutes from Cristien Musson saw Placer through to the final. The final

hard, they went down to a second half goal from Mustang. Final score 1-0 to
Mustang United resulting in a second place finish in the tournament.
The U14B Black team went into the tournament down players, including their
goalkeeper. They finished bracket play 1-1-1 (0-1 vs Tracy, 4-1 vs Walnut Creek
Diablos and 0-0 vs Elk Grove Everton). This was enough to advance them to the

loss and the team claiming 2nd Place.
The U15B Black team competed in their first tournament of the year and pulled in
a 2nd place finish after going 3-1 in bracket play. The team shutout their first
