99 Premier Girls take 1st in Cal.

Thursday, 29 May 2008 00:00

Over the Memorial Day weekend, the 99 Premier Girls went on their 1st out of state roadtrip to California and struck Gold. The Chula Vista Memorial Day Cup was the scene for what would eventually be a nerve shattering PK shootout in the finals. In the end our girls shot straight and true to gather 1st place in their first out of state tournament. Our hats go off to the Arsenal 99 Premier Girls and a special cheer for goalie Rachel ‘Booter’ Wilson who managed a 3-0 Penalty kick win. Keep up the good work ladies.
