WEEK 17: Race for Honor's Trophy is Heating Up

GOLD COAST 6 UNION SC 2 - The 2nd leg of the California Cup rivalry offered little drama as the Suns dominated from the get-go building a commanding lead and never looking back. The victory brings home the Cup to Northern California for the first time and is Gold Coast FC's 2nd trophy in the Clubs history. The win also keeps the Suns in striking distance of the Honors Trophy with only 4 games left on the season. Meanwhile Union SC's miserable season continues as the clubs last chance at some hardware has been erased. There will be no repeat of the BSL Cup, No entry to the 2011 Majors Cup, and no California Cup. SECOND CITY 6 BURUD TOWN 4 - A epic fight between two contending clubs ended with the Stars picking up a huge 3 points. In a game full of scores, Jon Busch's 5 saves and clean sheet was the difference. PENNSYLVANIA 3 ALAMO CITY 2 - Another week, another huge win for the Stoners. The never say die club from PA, continues to find late scorers to edge out opponents. This time Perlaza's goal on Sunday was the game winner. The Stoners could be the dark horse to make the BSL playoffs even though the club has not been in the top 4 in many weeks. GATEWAY UTD 6 HILLCREST UTD 0 - The battle of United's was easy to predict before the match even started and the Saints served up an impressive win to keep the club in the race for the Honors Trophy. CAPITAL DISTRICT 5 PACIFIC NORTHWEST 0 - With an entire league chasing, the Gunners took apart the easy Rangers to stay in first place in the BSL Standings and reclaimed first place in the Majors Cup table.
