Cal State Stanislaus Warrior News

The Cal-North 92 Boys ODP Team won the 92 Boys Age Group at the US Youth Soccer Region IV ODP Regional Championships on Monday, January 20, 2009. Held in Phoenix, they earned the right to represent Region IV at the US Youth Soccer National ODP Championships to be held in March 20-22, 2009 at Pizza Hut Park in Frisco, TX.
With a combined roster of 92’s and 93’s, Cal North went undefeated scoring 10 goals while giving up only 3 with 3 shutouts.
They progressed thru bracket play with victories over Nevada (3-1), Colorado (3-2) and Arizona (3-0). The scores do not reflect the level of competition each game presented. In fact, Cal-North had to come from behind against Colorado game scoring two goals in the last 7 minutes to win.
With a win in the Semi’s against Utah (3-0), the stage was set for the perennial powers of Region IV to play each other: Cal- North vs. Cal-South.
Much of the Region IV ODP Coaching Staff was on hand to watch including a large contingent of College Coaches. Both teams fought hard to gain superiority providing a number of potential game-breaking opportunities. The game was tied 0-0 until the final few minutes when Cal-North scored. The game ended 1-0 with Cal-North advancing to the US Youth Soccer National ODP Championships.
Congratulations to the Coaches Godwin Odyie and Kelly Coffey and Team Manager Alberto Ruiz. And most important, a job well done to the players of Cal North ODP.
