March 2, 2012

Division I

#1 Los Gatos (18-1-2) vs. #3 Mountain View (16-2-3) at Valley Christian – Saturday, 10am

The last time either of these team’s lost a match were in matches against one another. Each team won on its home pitch, as Los Gatos won 3-0 on January 13 thanks to goals by Victoria Walker, Kayla McQuade, and McKenzie Flood, and Mountain View prevailed 2-0 on February 3, as Emily Andrew and Danna Weintraub scored. The Spartans are 8-0-2 since the January loss, while the Wildcats have won five straight games, outscoring teams, 15-0, during that stretch, and 56-6 on the season.

Top-seeded Los Gatos blanked #4 Carlmont 2-0 in the semifinals. The Wildcats led 2-0 at the half on goals by Flood and Katrina Voris (14 goals this season), which proved to be enough offense for the win. Voris has been particularly dangerous during the playoffs, accounting for all three goals in the quarterfinal win over Menlo-Atherton. She has scored four goals in two playoff games.

#8 Freedom at #1 San Ramon Valley – Saturday, 7pm

San Ramon Valley (17-4-1) is on a march towards a return visit to the North Coast Section championship game. Rebuffed in the championship game each of the last two seasons, a quarterfinal appearance is old hat for the Wolves, who have made it to six straight title games.

On Wednesday, the Wolves thoroughly defeated Deer Valley, 3-0, as they scored two minutes into the match on a goal by Melissa Lewis and never looked back. They led 2-0 at the half on a score by Alexa Vandevanter (14:00) and put the visiting Wolverines away with a goal by Allie Dutto at the 60th minute. Goalie Kami Herley had an easy night, collecting three saves and the shutout.
