Thursday, Nov 30th, 7:00 PM, come cheer on UFV's "Unathletico FC" on home court (South Gym) as they face TWU's top futsal intramural team.
Road to the Valley Cup:
Unathletico FC are newcomers to the Valley Cup, but are eager to prove themselves in front of their home crowd. In the quarter-finals, they found themselves down 3-0 at halftime to underdogs "Free Agents 2". The 2nd half was a different story, as Unathletico FC fought their way to win the game 6-5. In the next round, they dominated rivals "Occasionally Utd S4", earning a comfortable 14-4 win. They once again met up in the finals with Occasionally Utd S4. This time, they were 2-1 down in the 2nd half. Led by Justin Chola and Hayden Koppes, Unathletico FC battled their way to a 7-4 win to earn their spot in the Valley Cup.
Players to watch:
Justin Chola & Hayden Koppes (Forwards)
The star striking duo have built up a goalscoring reputation over the past several semesters together. This year, they net 31 goals each, sharing the Golden Boot award. They will be key in Unathletico FC's efforts to break down TWU's defense.
Yazan Khalifa (Goalkeeper)
After another impressive semester between the sticks, Yazan claimed the Best Goalkeeper award. Coming off a dominant game in the league finals, his team will be relying on him to maintain his excellent form in the Valley Cup.
