Cardiff team captures a soccer tourney title

The Cardiff Mustangs 2004 boys soccer team played tough all the way through a nail-biting championship contest, which it won in a shootout, to grab the U13 bronze title at the Attack Summer Classic last weekend in Oceanside.

After defeating the RSF Attack White, 3-1, in their tournament opener, the locals played the San Diego Surf Academy to a scoreless tie later on Saturday. The Mustangs beat Borussia Del Mar, 5-0, on Sunday to set up a Monday rematch with SD Surf Academy for the crown. The hard-fought final went to penalty kicks, with the locals prevailing, 5-4, to take the title.
