Neither team scored, forcing penalty kicks. Glendale won on penalty kicks, 5-3.

Glendale also recently won the Quartz Hill Shootout Championship, which featured 12 California teams.

Glendale was selected to participate in AYSO’s National Games in Hawaii. The event will run July 7-13 and feature 24 teams from the United States and abroad for the AYSO National Championship.

The 20 player roster consists of Vinaka Angulo, Bailey Bagheri, Brittany Bagheri, Lauren Barton, Karissa Boyles, Megan Cowie, Emily Fisher, Katie Fisher, Jessica Gabrielian, Lauren Gabrielian, Karena Griffiths, Kimberly Kellam, Gwennie Kenny, Breanna King, Chelsea Lawrence, Jennifer Patterson, Nina Sbardellati, Emma Vine, Kailyn Wolf, and Mackinsey Woolever.
