This past Saturday, the Dons traveled to Orinda to take on the Matadors for a second time, this time in a non-league game. Fortunately, the sky was clear, but despite starting earlier it was even chillier than our rainy game last week at Campo. Both teams started the game working hard in the midfield. Sisi Houston on wing moved the ball to striker Alex Salazar who…

DONS were without some firepower of their own with Senior Captain Maddox Malm missing this…

The Dons secured a decisive 3-0 victory over the Las Lomas Knights last Thursday, completing a sweep of the season series.
