GU15 Nomads Thanksgiving Tournament Champions

Congratulations to the Eagles GU15 Blue team and their coach Mikey Alexander on their outstanding play over Thanksgiving weekend.  Over three days the Eagle players amassed a 4-0-2 record to capture the Championship of the Nomads Thanksgiving Tournament.  It was a soggy weekend, weather wise, where in pool play the Eagles tied Carlsbad Lightening Red, beat Palmdale Thunder, and tied Marin FC 95 Blue to win their bracket and move to the quarterfinals.  In the quarters they beat LAFC Chelsea White and moved on to the Semis where they beat Palo Alto FC 95 Blue Victory. The final game pitted the Eagles against FWU Reign 94 from Federal Way, Washington, where the Eagles finished the tournament winning 2-0.   It was the icing on the cake to a successful season before the players move on to their high school soccer season.
