Our Final Fall in Las Vegas - by Landry


This fall, like many other years, our Santa Clara Sporting U15 team went to Las Vegas for the Mayor's Cup Tournament. It is our 3rd year doing this and unfortunately it's our last. We left Friday morning and got back Monday morning.


We won our first game 2-0 against a team from Idaho. But later in the day we lost 2-1. So that meant that we were second in our group. Sadly, we couldn't qualify for the finals so we just played one final game on Sunday. In that game, we tied 1-1.


On Saturday night, our team had a little fun. We went to a haunted house. It was super fun because everyone was screaming and pushing each other to be first. Somehow I ended in the front but its fine because I was the brave one, *wink wink!


One thing I didn't mention is that both of our teams wears pink in October to support breast cancer awareness. In the end, the Green team got 2nd place and the White team got 4th place in two separate brackets.


This was a weekend of fun and hard work and I'm glad that both teams did pretty well. The Green team will be going back to Vegas in March for a player's showcase!
