Tennyson keeper going to Mt. Eden would be a big boost for them, and too bad for the Lancers.

I think the realignment is interesting. I really feel bad for teams being put into the league with Richmond. It won’t even be close. Pinole Valley is the next best team by a lot.
I think the Rock Division of this league will be pretty balanced with Albany, El Cerrito and St. Mary’s all in the running.

I think the WACC is a pretty fascinating league now with 16 league games and teams with all different styles. BOD and Berkeley should be considered favorites in their side of the league, and Hayward is a clear cut favorite in the other half.

In regards to the MVAL, I still think the Newark and Logan will be pretty good and the league won’t be all that bad.

Interesting to note about MVAL this year as it will develop into a weak league, yet this league has a new team coming in, Moreau Catholic which will come in as a new resident eager to take on the prominent teams. As well with Logan being out of that division.

Along side of that, Irvington and Mission San Jose high school have built a very strong program of experienced players who are eager to push out Newark and take top spot. Look out for some surprises in that division.

Who is Scott Berglin? Scott played four years at Cal State Hayward, was an assistant coach at Cal State , has coached at Amador and in club soccer . Most importantly for a town that cares about “character”. Scott is a man of great integrity and character…No administrator , parent, or athlete will ever regret Scott Berglin being named head coach at Amador. He is not looking to build a resume but help young people.

DFC 94 Won the Davis Showcase…they dominated and made a solid statement in the final.
DFC 95 also came out on top at Davis.

Concord is a team to watch. Clayton Valley’s change to a charter school (?) is pushing students and athletes to change schools.

Concord will have 3 OUTSTANDING seniors who play for DFC 94: Emmanuel Jimmenez (goalie), Andy Altamirano and Yojay Basulto (CV transfer).

As a friend to both Kenny and Scott I would like to say thank you to Kenny for his 15 years of dedication to Amador and the sport of soccer. To Scott I wish you the best moving forward. Having had the pleasure to coach and play soccer with you for many years, I know Amador is in good hands.

Amador followed a terribly misinformed decision (firing Ken) with a very wise one (hiring Scott).

I’ll just assume none of these naysayers actually played for Scott, or even Ken for that matter. I played 4 years at amador (05,06,07,08) – with multiple EBAL titles, NCS bids and a Winter Classic title to show for it.

Is #21′s “knowledge of the Amador situation” as good as that? I can get you a multitude of alums who feel the same way as I do.
