As noted from Bay Area Futbol News, congratulations to El Farolito on winning the US Amateur championship securing a return to the US Open Cup next year. We also would add a journal from our friend Doug Zimmerman on his World Cup travels at sfgate.com. Enjoy!
One last word we will share: The Quakes return to MLS play after nearly two months off and our highlights are from Wednesday against Orlando, and this past weekend at Stanford against LA in what will be the last summer California Clasico with the league going to a spring 2027 sprint schedule before shifting to a fall to spring slate about the same time next year.
And thank you to this fave of ours–we’ll give a shoutout to Terrremoto Mayor–the luchadore has always been fun to hang out. A big congratulations to the legend. Sorry we could not stay because of the shirt giveaway however we tip our hat and why we love this game. For all the highlights stay tuned to 3pointsport.com for more.
