The Azzurri Eagles outscored their opponnents over the last three games 12-3 but gave up a game winner to Lincoln to lose only their fourth game of the season. (16-4-2) All losses have been by one goal. They finished their last game of the regular season with a 6-0 win. The team is now in preparation for the District Cup in the E-D division. (What is call the B group flight A) They may have an opportunity to overcome two of their opponents that are responsible for three out of their four losses if they continue to work hard and continue to play together as they may get to face both of them in the District Cup. They are planning a scrimmage against the Azzurri Strikers another fine local team, the team that beat them 1-0 in the Peach Classic Tournament Championship Game, Saturday after Thanksgiving at 12 noon in the River Bottoms. With continued hard work and trust in themselves and their teammates they could do well in the District Cup and earn a chance to win their division in the finals December 13 under the lights in Woodland.
The Azzurri Eagles are also registered for the Association Cup the North State class 3 Championship tournament beginning the second weekend in January.
Coach Cooke is the host coach for the first weekend of games in the District Cup for the E-D division and will need help from parents as field marshalls, and from referees to make the experience a good one for all. He is one of three local coaches hosting their opening weekend of District Cup competition.
