The American girls have been outstanding this season, and their recent performances prove it — bringing home multiple tournament championships over the past few weeks!
Congratulations to our U12, U14, and U19 teams, who all brought home the hardware!
The U12 girls dominated their tournament weekend, going a perfect 5-0 while allowing only four goals against. Their run began with a 7-1 win over the Utica Jr. Comets, followed by back-to-back shutouts against the Lovell Winter Club and the NA Jr. Hawks. They continued their strong play with a 5-2 victory over Team Long Island and closed the weekend in style with a 5-1 championship win over the Lovell Cubs.
The U12 offense was led by Alexandra Manfredi (9 goals, 4 assists), Kyla Casey (8 goals, 4 assists), and Riley Marsahl (6 goals, 6 assists). Kyla and Riley each added two goals in the team’s championship win over the Cubs.
The U14 girls also went undefeated, opening the tournament with a 6-0 shutout over the Casco Bay Mariners. They followed up with a 3-1 win against the Seacoast Spartans and a tight 1-0 victory over the Valley Jr. Warriors. After blanking the Connecticut Hat Tricks, they faced the same opponent again in the championship — and once again came out on top with a 4-2 win to secure the title.
Outstanding goaltending anchored the team, with Nola Ferraresso and Sophia Downing combining to allow just four goals all weekend. Offensively, Zoie Abell led the way with 6 goals and 1 assist, while Norah Zaffini added 3 goals and 1 assist.
The U19 girls opened their tournament with a 4-0 win over SHAHA, followed by a 2-0 shutout against the Anaheim Lady Ducks. After a close 4-3 loss to the Webster Cyclones, they bounced back with another 4-0 victory over SHAHA — setting up a championship rematch with the Cyclones. This time, they turned the tables with a thrilling 4-3 win to claim the title!
Casey Kelley was named Tournament MVP at the ROC City Girls Fest after powering the U19 Americans to victory. Casey was the team’s spark plug, finishing the tournament with 6 goals and 1 assist to lead the charge.
