Pacifica United Soccer Club's Under 11 girls soccer team Freutel Rooking Shockwaves captured third place in the recently held Sunnyvale Fall Classic tournament.

Opening the tournament, the Shockwaves fell behind the Danville Mustang Galaxy 0-1, but rallied behind a nifty Anna Julian to Gallant to Kaylie Richards combo for a score, before falling 3-1.

Against the San Ramon Soccer Girlz, Richards scored, Shaw dished to an open Natalya Arnest, and Natalie Ray broke away for a 3-0 lead at the half. The Shockwaves rolled to a 6-2 decision with Arnest, Jordyn Freutel, and Richards scoring after two quick goals by San Ramon.

The third game against Livermore Fusion was a must win to advance and the Shockwaves came through. In a defensive struggle, anchored by Teri Gutierrez, Julia Hein, Anna Julian and Freutel, Richards found the far post on a solo effort for the 1-0 victory.

Earning their third place medals, the Shockwaves downed the Palo Alto Cyclones 2-0. Richards was a rock in the goal. After a scoreless first half, Dulay and Gutierrez both found room to score, and Freutel narrowly missed another score as her header sailed just over the bar off Richards' corner kick late.

Shockwaves is undefeated in CYSA league action. Following are results of previous games.

Alpine Strikers 0

Continuing their winning ways, the Shockwaves stunned the Strikers in Menlo Park with Julian's power shot from midfield, followed shortly by Richards' breakaway score to make it 2-0.

Hein was hard as nails in the goal stopping a penalty kick cold and turning away all threats. Switching to forward, Hein scored on a breakaway early in the second half, and later scored again off a sharp pass from Joya Palmer.

Play in the goal didn't miss a beat with Benham talking the reins and shutting the strikers down as the Shockwaves won.
