Eureka Lightning are
CYSA Association Cup
Champions
As
only the fifth team in
EYSC’s 30 year history,
the U-12 Eureka
Lightning won the title
of Association Cup
Champions on January
24th. With preliminary
wins of 3-0 and 3-0 in
Sacramento, the
Lightning moved on to
the Sweet 16 bracket in
Morgan Hill for the
second weekend. With an
early goal, the
Lightning advanced to
face the VYSL
Thunderbirds United from
Vacaville in the quarter
finals the following
day. With another 1-0
victory in the cold,
wet, and muddy
conditions, the team
advanced to the
semi-finals the
following weekend in
Danville. The semi-final
game on Saturday was
played against a tough
ARYSL Orangevale Norcal
Express team. With the
game tied 0-0 at the end
of regulation and
golden-goal overtime
periods, penalty kicks
were needed to advance
the Lightning to the
finals. On Sunday, the
Lightning returned to
face the Sierra Galaxy,
another Sacramento based
competitive team, for
the Cup Championship.
Again, with the game
going to golden-goal
overtime tied at 0-0,
the Cup was to be
decided by penalty
kicks. After just four
kicks each, the parents,
families, and guests on
the sidelines erupted
with joy as the Eureka
Lightning earned the
title of “Association
Cup Champions”.

After a Frightening Draw
Eureka Wolfpack Takes
4th in Marysville/Yuba
"Pumpkin Kick"
Tournament
The
under-13 select soccer
team, Eureka Wolfpack,
proudly took home 4th
place in the October
24th/25th weekend
Pumpkin Kick Tournament
held in Marysville /
Yuba City. The
Halloween-theme
tournament was
especially scary for the
boys because, due to a
clerical error, they
were placed in a
year-higher age
division. Their coach,
Joe Breault, advised
them going in that "we
have to play as a team
and not as individuals.
If we do that we will be
alright." They listened,
came out kicking, and
ran home with 4th place.
