Championship Round off to a good start for Crew 96
On Saturday, May 17th Crew 96 played their first game of the Championship round against Placer Gold at Del Oro. The level of intensity was extreme, both on the field and on the sidelines as every Crew player gave it their all in a tough fought contest that resulted in a 2-1 Crew ’96 victory. This marks the second time that Crew 96 has beaten the two time state champions Placer Gold. Crew 96 is one of two teams that have beaten Placer Gold and the only team to defeat Placer Gold twice in Northern California. The next two games Crew 96 plays will be against Mustang FC and Santa Cruz County Breakers White on June 7th at Ponderosa High School at 10:30 and 3:30 respectively. Come on out and cheer for another EDUCC team that is exciting to watch and be proud of!
