Yesterday’s game was a tough loss. But it was a great night to watch and cheer on Kid 2 and the Oaks! #SoccerDadLife #GoOaks
The Oaks battled under the lights in Turlock. 🌙⚽ 🔥 6 different players tested the keeper with shots on goal 🧤 Giorgia Melcore came up with 4 strong saves 📊 Oaks controlled the corners 5-0 The effort was there, but the equalizer could not be found. Oaks have one more road
