Eastside FC U14 Girls Win Dana Cup Soccer Tournament in Denmark

Four Eastside FC U14 girls are participating on a team (Benson Soccer) that won the Dana Cup soccer tournament in Denmark last week.  The Dana Cup is an international soccer tournament that included hundreds of teams from 25 countries.  The Eastside FC girls playing in the tournament are all from Kelli Smith’s U14 Red team:  Katie Bernardez, Piper Casey. Andie Corno, and Nicole Anderson.  En route to the title, they beat teams from Sweden, Norway, Denmark and US.  Throughout the tournament, they conceded no goals and won the final 1-0 over FC Marin from California.  The team is made up from girls throughout the state of Washington.  This week, the team is playing in the Gothia Cup in Sweden which is the world’s largest youth soccer tournament with 35,000 participants from over 70 countries participating.  Let's go girls!
