U10 GIRLS PANTHERS WIN NORCAL STATE CUP CHAMPIONSHIP
November 27, 2007
Drama. Suspense. Emotion. Action. And great soccer. The Bay Oaks Panthers U10 Girls experienced it all, winning the silver division in the Fall 2007 Nor Cal tournament.
Inconsistent play plagued Frederic's forces Saturday. The Panthers started out with a solid 3-0 win over Elk Grove, highlighted by a sweet goal from a sharp angle by Alexius Loman and a booming score covering half the field by Ashley Ryan. The girls then lost two winnable games, 1-2 and 0-1, squandering the outstanding defensive play of Reva Swiedler and relentlessness of Sydney McGillis.
However, poise and resiliency have been characteristics of this team all season and they responded Sunday morning with a sharp performance, dominating field position in a comeback win over the East Diablo Xplosion 2-1. Energized midfield play by Lisa Bertholdt and Savannah Autran, and the sideline speed of Erica MacDonald and Elise Buser stood out in the win. Game two was the first of a pair of thrillers. Tied 0-0 late in the second overtime, Jamie Gomez delivered a beautiful pass to Erica swarming in over the middle, a play the Panthers had attempted a couple of times already in the game. This time it worked. Game over!
Visibly tired yet still playing with intensity in their sixth game in two days (and without all-around star Cecilia Soghikian), the Panthers could have been blown out without Sara Sloan's super goalie play in the final. She blocked several shots in regulation, including a penalty kick and a point blank ricochet. Her play, aided by clutch defensive stops by Masa Peterson, set the stage for the dramatic PK tie breaker. Ashley and Jamie converted their kicks early. Then Sara went to work, stuffing shot after shot, including the crucial fifth PK, to give the Bay Oaks team a 2-1 PK win over Elk Grove. Even the unflappable Frederic smiled in relief at the end of this one!
U9B ROADRUNNERS JRS WIN NORCAL STATE CUP CHAMPIONSHIP
November 18, 2007
The U9 Boys Roadrunners Jrs (RR Jrs) coached by Amado Lozano and assistant Michael Schmitz completed their 1st season by winning the
Norcal State Cup 2007 – Gold Division. 
In group play, the RR Jrs made their presence felt by outscoring their opponents 10 to 1.
The team was lead by strong all-out defensive effort and 5 goal keepers to hold their opponents to one goal.
In the first game, the RR Jrs took a 1-0 lead after halftime against Novato United, and during the 2nd half,
Novato United had a chance to equalize on a penalty which was saved. In the second game, after cruising to a 2-0 lead by halftime; the Livingston Lobos would not go away.
They scored within the first five minutes of the second half and were only down by one goal.
The RR Jrs quickly regrouped and finally found their third goal on a penalty kick and went on to win, 3-1.
The RR Jrs advanced to the elimination round after completely decimating the Ballistic U9 Gold team, 6-0.
After securing the 1st seed and advancing directly to the semifinal game,
the RR Jrs had to breakdown the most stubborn team that they’ve encountered during the tournament and went on to win, 1-0 on a picture perfect 25 yard shot which hit the top left corner of the net.
In a one-sided final match, the RR quickly pounced on the San Ramon Gunners 2-0 by halftime and went on to win 5-0.
They utilized their skills, teamwork and used every-inch-of-the-field tactic.
The get-out-of-my-house defense was led by Joseph Rockwell, Gavin Faucette and Darius Wekwerth.
The “engine” (midfields) was led by Amado Lozano III, Lorenzo Chiodo, Roger “Trey” Miller, Max Schmitz,
Owen Sowerwine, Nicky Nguyen, Arlo Bloom and Gyasi Pigott. The forwards were led by Jordan Vasquez and Riley Ellis.
The U9B Roadrunner Jrs finished 7-2 in the first D3-D4 combined playing league.

place team at State Cup. With several great saves, goalie Cynthia
Rodriguez helped keep the Blasters in the game. Gabby Powell, Gracie

The Bay Oaks U11 Boys United tore up the turf at the WCSC Octoberfest this weekend.
Coached by Tom DeWit and assistant Jose Reyes, the United posted wins of 6-1, 8-0, and 2-0 in the preliminaries.
The championship loomed as a match up between two powerhouses, but United dominated Mustang Internazionale in the finals 3-0.
As is representative of this team, all players contributed to the win with an aggressive, heads-up style.
While the scores reflect the ability of this team to score big, United’s defense is scary!
Ghoulish goalkeeping was wicked good and the defense’s speed and ability to relentlessly win the ball back truly haunted their opponents!
Year to date, U11 Boys United are finalists in the Sac United Fall Classic and champions of the Ballistic United Summerfest,
Bay Oaks Labor Day Classic, and WCSC Octoberfest.

The Bombers started out Saturday crushing the SMSC Fury 6-0, followed by a 2-1 victory over the Walnut Creek Edge. Sunday morning they beat the
Butte Bobcats 4-1 setting up a championship game against their arch rival the ACC Mavericks.
In the final the Bombers dominated play with their patented passing game and their solid defense which only allowed two goals in the entire tournament
and shut out the Mavericks with a 2-0 win on goals by Ellie Davis and Bob Wi. The defense was led by keeper Margaret Huntington, flat backs
Morgan Kintz and Ayelet Haar and wingbacks Cat Fearing and Roni Owyang. The midfield was led by Kylie Carera, Laura Alberti
Ruby Hebert and Bob Wi. The offensive spark was provided by Jenny Budd, Lucia Calthorpe, Hannah Girma, Izzy Merrit, Ellie Davis
and Elizabeth Avalos.

August 12, 2007
The U11 Girls Botafogo coached by Mario Zuniga and assistant Mike Greening continue their excellent start to the 2007 season winning the Mustang Stampede this weekend.
Playing in the championship game were the Mustang Mavericks and the Bay Oaks Botafogo. Mustangs were first to strike scoring in the first five minutes of play. Maintaining their composure Botafogo adjusted and then held the Mustang scoreless for the remainder of regular play. Botafogo scored on a beautiful cross from Stephanie Zuniga to Jazzy Edwards ten minutes into the second half. Tied after regular play and two golden goal periods, the championship was ultimately secured in penalty kicks.
Year to date the U11G Botafogo are the champions of the NorCal Premier spring league and the Cal Cup and Mustang Stampede tournaments.
U12G BOMBERS ADVANCE TO QUARTER FINALS AT SAN DIEGO SURF CUP
July 30, 2007
Coaches Momi Assayag and Tom Wilson led the U12 Girls Bombers to the quarterfinals of the prestigious San Diego Surf Cup tournament where they were finally stopped in penalty kicks after battling eventual tourney champions, the SoCal Blues (San Juan Capistrano), to a nil-nil draw in regulation time.
Seeded forth of four, the Bombers emerged from the tough ‘C’ group that included two of the ‘final four’ teams from the Southern California State Cup tournament. The Bombers, lead by a rock solid defensive effort, held four high-scoring teams to only one goal in a 1-2-1 record for the tournament.
In group play, the Bombers matched the SoCal State Cup finalist Newport Beach Slammers to an even fought nil-nil draw. In game two, the Bombers took a 1-0 lead into halftime against the Real So Cal (Agoura, CA), but a fluky second half goal tied the game 1-1 and led to a well-earned draw by both teams. The Bombers advanced to quarter final play by handily defeating the Colorado Rush Nike team 3-0.
In a thrilling quarterfinal elimination game, a tough Bomber defense frustrated a fast and deep Blues team. Taking control of the action, the Bombers created a number of scoring chances in both the first and second half's with balls hitting the post and sailing over the crossbar. However, the Bombers could not match the SoCal Blues in penalty kicks and fell to the eventual tournament champions.
Momi and Tom are back coaching the team in 2007 after a successful campaign in 2006 where the Bombers ended their season as a semifinalist in the Northern California State Cup in U-11 play.

U14G BAY OAKS BLASTERS TAKE GOLD IN TWO FALL TOURNAMENTS
October 30, 2006
The Bay Oaks Blasters U14 girls team had a very successful tournament season this fall, going undefeated while winning both the Hayward Fall Classic and the Lodi Referee's Fall Classic. In the final of the Lodi Tournament this past weekend, the Blasters defeated a strong Marin team to claim a 3-1 Championship victory. In September, the Blasters defeated Hayward by an identical 3-1 margin to win Championships in back-to-back months.
Starting in August, with a second place finish in the Mission Viejo Tournament, the Blasters have played in either the championship or consolation game of all 6 tournaments that they entered. Possession soccer, high pressure defense, outstanding goalkeeping, and team chemistry have kept the Blasters competitive and in every game. Coaches Steve Hathaway, Jose Poblete Sr., goalkeeper coach Jose Poblete Jr., and AD Glenn Van Straatum have been very impressed with the hard work and dedication of the entire team.
GHANA / BAY OAKS EXHIBITION MATCH A MAJOR SUCCESS
October 19, 2006
Over 300 people lined the sidelines of Hornet Field yesterday to watch the Women's National Team of Ghana square off against the Bay Oaks U18 Girls team coached by Kevin Boyd, and they were treated to an outstanding exhibition match. The women from Ghana ultimately prevailed in the contest, 4-3, but the Bay Oaks women can hold their heads high for their competitive play against this strong international squad. In fact, the Bay Oaks team scored more goals against the Black Queens than any of Ghana's prior exhibition match competitors, including the SF Nighthawks, the Sacramento Storm, and the California Golden Bears.
The exhibition match was part of a tour of the SF Bay Area by the Black Queens in preparation for the upcoming African National Championships at the end of October and the Women's World Cup in 2007. At the end of the goodwill match, the Bay Oaks women presented the Black Queens with Bay Oaks warmup T-shirts as the both teams congratulated each other at midfield and posed for group pictures. The Hornet Field was mowed and striped especially for the exhibition, and the weather cooperated with warm temperatures. Spectators saw some beautiful soccer on both sides of the pitch. All in all, the exhibition match proved to be a major success!
BAY OAKS U13 BOYS SWEEP TWO SEPTEMBER TOURNAMENTS
October 5, 2006
September was a good month for the Bay Oaks U13 Boys team coached by Frederic Autran. The team started out the month by winning the Bay Oaks Labor Day Classic, defending its title from last year.  The boys won bracket play in convincing fashion by outscoring their opponents 19-0 to advance to the finals against traditional rival ACC Mavericks. Regulation time of the championship game ended in a 1-1 tie, and remained tied through the first overtime period, but the Bay Oaks squad scored a golden goal shortly into the second overtime period to give the team the championship!
At the end of the month, the team dominated competition to win the Lodi Referee's Fall Classic, again defending their title from last year. The team swept through bracket play by a combined score of 16-0, and they scored early and often to defeat Davis Legacy 5-1 in the final and earn their second championship in September. Coach Autran was pleased that 10 different players scored goals during the two tournaments, and many of the goals came off crosses and were "team" goals rather than the effort of one player.
The team dedicated the Lodi tournament to its former coach, Bruce Furst, who was undergoing a surgical procedure that weekend. The team was thrilled that Bruce had a successful surgery and a speedy recovery, and Bruce now proudly displays a very large trophy in his bedroom. The team has asked for the trophy back, but to date, Bruce has not returned it.
U12B EARTHQUAKES WIN CHAMPIONSHIP AT LABOR DAY CLASSIC
September 4, 2006
The Bay Oaks Earthquakes, coached by Frédéric Autran and Kevin Rockwell,  won the U12 Boys Class I division at the Labor Day Classic. The team opened with a narrow 0-1 loss to an impressive San Francisco United team. The Quakes bounced back Saturday afternoon against Santa Clara Sporting, winning 3-2. The Bay Oaks scored two first-half goals before Sporting tied the game in the second period. With just two minutes to play, the Quakes launched a long through pass that a Bay Oaks forward ran down and shot home for the victory. With the victory and loss, the Quakes reached the semifinal as a second-place team. Sunday morning the Quakes beat Marin Central 2-0. This earned the hosts a rematch against SF United, but this time the Quakes played a far better game compared with the first attempt, and they never let United get into its stride. In spite of the Quakes having the upper hand, United scored first, midway through the second half; but the Quakes never stopped fighting and two late goals gave the victory—and the title—to the Bay Oaks.
U12G SPEED DEMONS WIN CHAMPIONSHIP AT CASTRO VALLEY SHOOTOUT
August 21, 2006
New Coach Jon Nishimoto is off to a good start with the U12G Speed Demons.  On August 19 & 20, his team went undefeated winning the Castro Valley Summer Shootout. The Speed Demons defeated Palo Alto Blue 95, the ACC Mavericks, and the Fremont Flash in group play before beating the host Castro Valley Ravens in the Sunday afternoon Championship. During the 4-game tournament the girls' stingy defense did not allow a goal while their offense scored 12 times. Earlier in the year the team finished 3rd in NorCal Premier's tough Spring league. Jon and Assistant Coach Michael Ranahan both look forward to this Fall's GSSL schedule, where the girls have been Gold flighted.
U12G BLADES OFF TO GOOD START IN NOVATO CLASSIC
August 21, 2006
The U12G Blades got the season off to a good start by capturing fourth place in the Novato Classic on August 19th and 20th.  In their first tournament of the season, the Blades managed two ties, a win and a last-minute loss. Strong defense was key to the Blades' games with only two goals allowed in their four games, including a 0-0 tie against eventual tournament champion Central Marin Magic. Another tie against MVLA and a dominating 5-0 win over Elk Grove put the Blades into the consolations, where a last-minute goal by the Los Altos Thundercats finally stopped them, 2-1. Blades coaches Bernardo Lopez and Geo Nordin expect the team to score more goals this fall and to move up in Cal-North rankings.
U11G BAY OAKS BOMBERS TAKE SILVER IN LODI
September 24, 2006
Momi Assayag and Tom Wilson led the Bombers to the finals for a third
time in five tourney tries last weekend in Lodi where the girls took
home silver medals in the tourney's top flight of teams. In qualifying
play the Bombers defeated the Turlock Tornados 5-0, the Davis Velocity
3-0 and the Livermore Crew 2-1 to take the four-team bracket.
Facing the Danville Mustang Fury 96 team in the finals, the Bombers
evened up the score at 1-1 at half time by controlling play, however,
the Mustangs took advantage of their opportunities in the second half to
win the final 3-1 under a hot Central Valley sun.
Earlier in the summer the Bombers were crowned champions at the San
Ramon Cup and won the Bay Oaks Labor Day Classic. All told, Momi
Assayag and Tom Wilson have coached the Bombers in five tournaments
representing 45 top girls teams from throughout Northern California,
where the Bombers compiled a 14-2-2 record, scoring 57 goals while
giving up only 10 on the way to earning two gold medals and a silver
medal.
U14G BREAKAWAYS READY FOR STATE CUP
March 19, 2006
The U14 Girls Breakaways warmed up for State Cup by winning  the Lodi Spring Classic Tournament this weekend. For the championship game, the Breakaways, coached by Eric George, lined up against the defending state champion Mustang Spirit. After a tense and goal-less first half, the Breakaways scored midway through the second half, sending the sideline into pandemonium. But Mustang showed why they are state champs by equalizing within a few minutes. At the end of regulation time the score was tied 1-1. Two scoreless overtime periods were played with few shots and strong defensive play. In the penalty kick phase, after the first five kickers, the teams were still tied 4-4. But in the end, after nine kickers, the Breakaways prevailed 5-4 for a dramatic victory.
The Breakaways will meet Mustang again next weekend in the first round of State Cup. Go Breakaways!
AN IMPRESSIVE RUN FOR THE SPEED DEMONS
January 31, 2006
Following a very strong showing last Fall with a first place in the District 4 Competitive  Playing League, the U11 Girls ("Speed Demons"), coached by Fernando Romero, are not slowing down... A few weeks ago, they eliminated San Ramon Azurre 2003 and Elk Grove Pride 95 Blue to reach the Final Four of the NorCal Cup (Gold Flight), where they will face the Central Valley Chilipeppers in the semi-finals on February 4th in Clovis.
The team has made an equally impressive State Cup run, and they have yet to be scored upon! Two weekends ago in Turlock, they easily won their three games - 3-0 vs MVLA Fusion, 10-0 vs CVSA Cyclone and 4-0 vs Tornados United. In a second round game last weekend, they shutout Elk Grove 1-0 to maintain their streak while advancing to the Round of 16 on February 11.
Congratulations to the team for their outstanding performance!
U13 GIRLS BLAST TO CASTRO VALLEY TOURNAMENT VICTORY
January 20, 2006
Using a tight defense and a gambling offense, the U-13 Bay Oaks Blasters, coached by Steve Hathaway, won the Castro Valley Winter Shoot Out January 7-8 with a 1-0 victory under the lights.
It was the Blasters’ third straight shutout victory, in their fifth game of the weekend. It capped a post-season resurgence for a team that had not been at full strength all year. The Blasters competed in the GSSL gold flight last season with three of 15 players out due to serious injury. The best evidence of the rebound came with victories over two teams who had frustrated the under-strength Blasters during the fall season.
Earlier in their season, the Blasters were finalists at the Mission Viejo Classic, and Semi-finalists in the Livermore Girls Fall Classic and the Bay Oaks Labor Day Classic.
Congratulations on a successful season!

BOYS U15 TEAM CELEBRATES WINS IN LONG BEACH AND SONOMA
August 22, 2005
Coach Edgar Erker's boys U15 team beat the highly ranked Valley United SC Blast 3-1 to win the California Sun & Surf International Soccer Tournament in Long Beach August 13-15. The team played a grueling six games over three days, and in the final three games played the best team soccer it has ever put together, with a variety of people scoring decisive goals. Ten of the team members, pictured above, also won the Sonoma Six-A-Side Tournament on July 9. In the finals they trailed 3-1 at half, only to score 8 goals in the first five minutes of the second half. Thanks to literally a last-second goal by one defender, every one of the team members scored.
This team has a cross-generational connection with Bay Oaks, as coach Erker himself played Bay Oaks and he coached two of his present players' fathers when they played. Edgar declines to opine whether the fathers or sons were better.

BAY OAKS BUILDS TOP PROGRAM FOR UNDER 18/19 GIRLS AND BOYS TEAMS
March 21, 2005
Bay Oaks continues to strengthen the training program for its oldest players. Two years ago, the club hired Kevin Boyd, the head women’s soccer coach at Cal, to coach the U-18 Girls team to offer these players the best training possible as they prepared themselves for playing at the next level. Bay Oaks continued the development of its oldest age groups last year when Andy Bonchonsky, Bay Oaks Director of Coaching, assumed the coaching position for the U18/19 Boys team as a complement to the girls side. Now a third top-level coach has been added to the group.
 This year, Tom Sutton will coach a second U-18 Girls team. Tom has been coaching youth soccer for more than 20 years including high school, club, and ODP boys and girls teams. Tom had a year-round soccer training facility in Colorado before moving to the Bay Area in 1998. In Colorado, Tom led six different club teams that he coached (including Colorado Rush and Littleton United) to the State Cup finals, winning five of them. Tom has worked with Bay Oaks players the last three years, including a U-19 Girls team that went to the State Cup finals, losing only to the team that ultimately finished second in the nation that year. The past two years, Tom has worked with Fred Bicknell coaching the Bay Oaks Strykers U-17 team, who were State Cup semifinalist last year.
Tryout dates and times for all three teams are posted on the tryout schedule

Let’s not forget Fabian Plascencia’s U13 boys, who were eliminated by Placer United Prestige Gold (0-3) in the second round; and Momi Assayag’s U11 girls, who barely lost (1-2) to Butte United Bobcats in the round of 16; as well as Kwadwo Boateng’s U13B boys, Steve Hathaway’s U12 girls, Diane Chann’s U12B girls, and Eric George’s U13 girls, who carried the Bay Oaks colors very high in the first round.
Congratulations to all the players, parents, coaches, managers, and supporters for working so hard throughout the year. A special thank you goes out to both Bruce and Ajit. Both will be stepping down next year as head coaches and we wish them luck.
Go Bay Oaks!

IMPRESSIVE FALL LEAGUE RESULTS FOR BAY OAKS
December 1, 2004
The fall season officially came to an end a few weeks ago. It's now a good time to measure the performances achieved by some of our Bay Oaks teams in their respective leagues.
In the District 4 Competitive Playing League (D4 CPL) gold flight, Bruce Furst’s U11 boys were crowned champions for the second year in a row after a very nice competition with ACC Mavericks and Hayward America. Fernando Romero’s U10 girls totally dominated their subject, finishing 1st without losing a game (9-0-1) and allowing just 3 goals against. Frédéric Autran’s U10 boys finished 2nd behind a strong ACC Mavericks Traviesos team, and Ricardo Ramirez’s U10 girls (half U9) ended in an honorable 5th position.
In the Golden State Soccer League (GSSL), nine Bay Oaks teams finished on the podium.
Congratulations to our gold flight winners, Ajit Rana’s U12 boys and Fabian Plascencia’s undefeated U13 boys, and to our silver flight winners, Steve Hathaway’s U12 girls and Eric George’s U13 girls, both of which will be promoted to gold flight next season. Miguel Marroquin’s U14 and Glenn Van Straatum’s U16 boys teams finished second in their gold flight. On the girls’ side, Peter Hayton’s U15 (gold), Fred Bicknell’s U17 (gold), and Mike Gonzalez’s U14 (silver) teams ended their seasons in the 3rd spot.
Using a system of points allocated to each team according to finals standings, the Bay Oaks boys (7 teams) finished #1 out of 20 clubs playing in the GSSL Gold flight, and the Bay Oaks girls (5 teams) finished #4 overall out of 16 clubs—a good sign for the upcoming State Cup!

GOOD TOURNAMENT RESULTS FOR BAY OAKS TEAMS
November 5, 2004
This tournament season has been particularly successful for our colors:
BOYS
The U12 team, coached by Ajit Rana, won two tournaments in September: the Almaden Fall Classic and the Bay Oaks Labor Day Classic. The U13 boys coached by Fabian Plascencia were also Bay Oaks Labor Day Classic champions and reached the final at the San Ramon Valley Cup and at the Golden Gate Invitational in San Francisco. Glenn Van Straatum's U16 team (see picture) reached the final at both the Ballistic United Summer Classic and the
Almaden Fall Classic. And let's not forget
Bruce Furst's U11 boys, who lost by the
closest margin against ACC Mavericks in the
Bay Oaks Labor Day Classic final; came in
3rd at the San Ramon Valley Cup, the Lodi
Soccer Referees Fall Classic, and the
Mustang Headless Horseman Tournament; and
finished 4th at the Santa Rosa Champions
Cup.
GIRLS
 Congratulations to Steve Hathaway’s U12 team, Bay Oaks Labor Day Classic champions and semifinalists in San Ramon; to Courtney Longua's U16 team (see picture below), which won the Lodi Girls Fall Cl assic; to Mike Gonzalez' U14 team, which finished 2nd at Lodi; and to Momi Assayag's U11 team, which finished 2nd at the San Ramon Valley Cup and at the Bay Oaks Labor Day Classic.

Bay Oaks U12 Boys Continue Their Winning
Ways at Almaden Champions Cup
September 26, 2004
In late September each year, the Almaden Champions Cup Division I Soccer Tournament invites the best soccer clubs to play in Morgan Hill. This year, at the 26th
annual Cup on September 25–26, the Bay Oaks
U12 boys brought home the gold against
competition that included nationally ranked
teams.
A series of ties on day one kept the Bay
Oaks uncertain of their tournament position
by the day’s close. In an early morning
kickoff game, the Central Valley Outlaws
scored two goals in the second half, leading
to a 2-2 tie against the Bay Oaks. That
afternoon’s game was an instance of déjà vu,
as the Merced United Arsenals scored a goal
in the final 5 minutes of play against the
Bay Oaks and caused yet another 2-2 tie.
However, hard work and perseverance
inevitably become the main determinant of
any team’s success in tournament play.
Remembering this lesson from their previous
victory at the Bay Oaks Labor Day Classic
three weeks ago, the team rallied by
fortifying their defensive strategy. So on
day two, the boys guaranteed their
advancement to the championship game by
racking up eight goals in a shutout match
against Windsor Ajax.
This decisive win earned the Bay Oaks a leg
up in the final championship game against
the San Ramon Santos. Goals from Ajaya Rana,
Carlyle Garrich, and Max Oldham secured the
Bay Oaks’ 4-1 victory, but the team’s secret
weapon was the coordinated strategy of team
play by forwards, midfielders, and defenders
alike.
This season, coach Ajit Rana has assembled a
squad that shows balance between an
aggressive attack and a near-impermeable
defensive line. Of the Almaden tournament,
Rana explained, “The scenario that got us to
the final, with so many ties, showed the
quality of the teams in the tournament. But
this team earned the win; they were
focused and they showed their maturity.”
After their tournament victory, the team
danced exuberantly around their coaches as
Rana held up the gold prize cup and told the
exhausted but jubilant squad, “When you want
it and you work for it, nothing is
impossible.”
The Bay Oaks U12 boys team remains
undefeated this season.
U16 TEAM
TAKES SECOND IN FINAL MOMENTS
at
Almaden Champions Cup
September
26
In other tournament news, the Bay Oaks Barca
U16 boys, coached by Glenn Van Straatum and
Juan Ceja, captured a second-place berth in
Morgan Hill, entering the finals with a
decisive lead in points earned, but ending
the tournament with a nail-biter against
California Odyssey, going down in the final
minutes by a score of 0-1.

February 16, 2004
 On Feb. 14, 2004 at the Turlock Sports Complex, the Bay Oaks Bombers U13 Girls played in the Quarter Finals of the State Cup. They played a very intense game against Pleasanton Rage, the 2003 State Cup Champions. Pleasanton Rage won in the State Cup last year against the Bay Oaks Bombers in the Finals.
During the first half of the game, the Bay Oaks Bombers dominated the Pleasanton Rage with a 2-0 score in the first half with two goals by Mikaela Freeman. Pleasanton Rage answered back in the second half, scoring two goals. The score was tied, 2-2. During the second overtime period, Taylor Lee scored the golden goal, advancing the Bay Oaks Bombers into the semifinals with a final score of 3-2. This was indeed a sweet Valentine’s gift for the team, coaches and parents.
On Feb. 15th, the Bay Oaks Bombers played the San Francisco Aftershocks in the semifinals. During this game, the Bay Oaks Bombers dominated the game, but couldn't get past San Francisco Aftershocks great goalie. The teams went through two ten-minute overtimes without scoring a goal. Finally the game ended with penalty kicks. Bay Oaks Bombers 4, San Francisco Aftershocks 2. The Bay Oaks Bombers makes history for the Bay Oaks organization. The first team to make it to the State Cup finals, three years in a row. The State Cup finals will be held in Petaluma on Saturday, February 28th.
We wish d’Alary Dalton and the Bay Oaks Bombers U13 girls team continued success in their State Cup run!

 The Bay Oaks Breakers played in Castro Valley on Jan. 17th and Jan. 18th, advancing to the Round of 16 with wins in the first round of State Cup. The Breakers played the Healdsburg team and tied with a score of 1-1. The Breakers second game was with the Mustang Silver and they tied 0-0, with superb defensive efforts from both teams. On the second day, the Breakers had a “must-win-to advance” game against DVSC. The Breakers shot in a goal with less than one minute remaining to win the game with a 2-1 win and advancing the Breakers to the Round of 16. At the Round of 16, the Breakers were defeated by Turlock Tornados, which ended their successful run at the State Cup. This was a great run for the Bay Oaks Breakers, coached by Mike Gonzalez.
