This Week 1-7-19

Welcome to 2019.  There was one game over the weekend but that was a makeup game from November 2018 when it was originally scheduled but was delayed mainly due to the Camp Fire.

In a game that was marked by the cold and pockets of rain, Academica SC advances over the Oakland Stompers 1-0 with a late goal in the 80th minute.  The Turlock club now awaits their opponent in April.
