Prior to the weekend tournament, The Waves compiled an 8-0 regular-season record while competing against Sonoma County teams in the Super Rec League. Including tournament games at Davis, the KYSL squad has outscored the competition 40-5.
The team’s standouts on defense were Alex Garcia, Ariel Perez, Evelyn Vargas Zurita, Dezi Anderson and keepers Amelie Davis and Alyna Solorio. Davis and Solorio combined to allow just one goal in four tournament games.
