ECNL Recap: Lopsided results
U14
Prior to last weekend, De Anza Force U14’s last ECNL game was on November 17. De Anza won that game 8-1 over Santa Rosa United. The nearly four month layoff did not seem to affect De Anza at all, as the Northern California squad registered another 8-1 victory on Saturday. This time De Anza did the damage against San Juan Soccer Club. Five players found the back of the net for De Anza. Samantha Tran led the way with three goals. Sarah Tatley added two to the talley. Joelle Anderson, Alexandra Augulis, and Luca Deza all had a goal each. Deza also recorded four assists in the game. De Anza (8-0-1) holds the top spot in the nation in terms of goals per game with 5.44.
Colorado Rush is third in that goals per game category and made up some ground on De Anza Force this weekend with a 9-0 win over Utah Avalanche on Sunday. In a game that was played indoors with shortened halves, Rush’s attack still ran rampant around the defense. Leading scorer Civana Kuhlman add three goals to her season tally to push it to 23 in 15 games. Sage Diguilio and Amanda Porter both had two goals each in the lopsided affair.
U15
Real Colorado cruised to a 6-1 victory over Utah Avalanche on Saturday in Mountain West Conference action. U.S. youth national team player Mallory Pugh scored four goals in the fixture. Tatum Barton added the other two. Pugh, Barton, and Jayne Lydiatt have combined to score 40 goals this season. Real Colorado’s next games will be next month in the ECNL National Showcase: San Diego.
Avalanche kept it closer in Sunday’s clash against Colorado Rush, but Rush still secured the three points in a 4-2 victory. Breeana Bezdek had two goals in the win. Emma Musson and Michaela Stark also scored.
Freestate Soccer Alliance continued its undefeated start to the season in conference play with a 2-0 win over Bethesda SC on Sunday. The Virginia club improved to 7-0-1 on the season. Goalkeepers Alayah Hightower and Melanie Stiles have only let in one goal over that stretch.
U16
Internationals SC continued the theme of lopsided results with a 6-1 win over Ohio Premier Eagles on Saturday. Forward Jenna Dorchock scored twice in International’s fourth conference win of the season. Brooke Brenner, Elle Cain, Lauren Foster, and Halle Stelbasky all scored in Saturday’s win.
Freestate Soccer Alliance improved to 4-2-2 on the season with a 2-0 win over Bethesda SC on Sunday. Freestate moved into the fourth spot in the Midatlantic Conference standings.
