Daniel de Leonardis

Daniel had an amazing game today making countless 1v1 saves, encouraging his team mates, directing traffic, taking a leadership role and to top it off he stopped a penalty kick “twice”!! Leading his team to a 3-3 come from behind tie in an away game.

Amir Castillo

Amir has been excellent as left back, he has good awareness of the game. He can defend, attack, and score goals as he did so last game by scoring the second goal of our 3-2 Lost.

Dominic Sasser

Dominic’s improvement has been noticeable since day one in the new season. Using his soccer IQ to make wise decisions, safe moves, and playing back to the goalkeeper constantly to release pressure and open spaces has been key. Dominic has played pretty much 100% of all games. Great asset of the team. Well deserved nomination.

Andres Ferreira

Andres played a great game scoring two goals and organizing his defense the entire second half. Andres continues to improve and show real quality in his play.

Nicolas Guerrero

Nico played with a lot of confidence and wasn’t afraid to play from the back. He’s very disciplined and doesn’t panic.

Eric Carvalho

He was relentless in the attack creating scoring chances. He was able to capitalize and score 4 important goals in two very competitive games this weekend. He has a positive attitude, and you can tell he loves the game. Always shows up ready to compete!

Santiago Marchetti

Santiago was involved in all 4 scores this weekend in an amazing comeback and a heartbreaker in the other game. His tenacity and vision make him a dangerous player on the pitch with a lethal long range shot with accuracy as well. One to keep eyes on. He is new to our club from Uruguay and showing his skills at every event he has been with us.

Jay Portela

Play a fantastic game vs Boca (SFFA). He controlled the entire game and showed composure and IQ of the game.

Juan Medina

Juan coming from our premier side last year play a fantastic game in the inaugural game of the season vs Boca

Cayden Guillaume

Cayden scored two goals and helped his team comeback from an early 0-2 deficit. He was very creative up front and made numerous runs and passes, never being selfish.

Nicolas Lechowsky

Great goal and constantly an issue for Boca’s defenders this past weekend.
