The Stampede logged a win and tie over the weekend as they faced Placer United and Loomis respectively in Norcal fall league play. Davis' Sophie Karperos set the stage Saturday with her relentless defense as she stonewalled every attempt by Placer to penetrate the locals' back line. Stampede strikers Ainsley Carrol and Jordan Davis got two goals each to make it 4-0 at the half. After getting hammered in the box, Stampede midfielder Lily Byrne converted the penalty to make it 5-0. Despite a late goal by Placer, Davis striker Mattie Eaton hustled to beat the defense to the ball to end the game 6-1.
Sunday's hard fought stalemate again featured solid Stampede defense, this time starring the ever speedy and composed Yasmeen Dmeiri who repeatedly frustrated Loomis' entire front line. Down most of the game 0-1, J. Davis served a through ball to striker Allie Belafsy who was able to outrun the defense and the keeper to tap in the equalizer.
