We are so proud of our GU9 Black team. It is the first time in NHB history that a GU9 team has gotten to the Elite 8 in State Cup. After finishing pool play undefeated, the Black team, guided by their coach Dave Kelsey, kept up their stellar play during three very tough rounds of knock-out games. The Black team defeated CSL League Cup semi-finalist Beach G99 4- 2 in the round of 32, and defeated CSL League Cup finalist Legends FC 3-2 in penalty kicks, only to lose in the quarter-finals to Presidio League champion Carlsbad Lightning. The weekend was a well played team effort and we are again so proud of them. Congrats to:
