Last weekend, three beach city AYSO teams won Western State Championships titles. The titles came just one month after Redondo Union High School won both the girls and boys CIF Southern Section Championship.T
The AYSO championships were held in Morgan Hill, in Northern California, and included teams from California, Alaska, Nevada, Arizona, Oregon and Washington.
The North Redondo Beach Girls U12 All Stars fell behind 2 to 1 in the finals match against Newberry Park, and then cruised to an 8-2 victory with six goals in the second half.
The South Redondo Girls U10 Allstars defeated Hillsborough 3 to 1 in the semifinals and North Valley 2 to 0 in the championship match. Alli Wisniewski and Ella Capuzzi scored South Redondo’s two goals. Goalie Kirra Sundermann kept North Valley scoreless.

The Purple Panthers Girls U10 from Hermosa Beach and Manhattan Beach (Region 18) also brought home a Western State Championships title, adding to Region 18 titles brought home by the Girls U12 in 2016 and 2017.
Andi Schoenecker, and Elise Meyers each scored in the 3 to 1 championship victory over Santee. The Panthers finished the season with a 28 and 2 record.
The West Torrance Rebels Girls U10 also returned home last weekend from Morrow Hill with a Western States Championship. The win was especially notable because the Rebels are “2013 girls,” who played up a year throughout the season. ER
