South Dakota United Decisively Takes National Championship

South Dakota United U15 left no doubt who the best team in the country is in the US Club National Cup, beating Pittsburgh 4-1 to take home the National Championship.

Pierre’s Ryann Barry started the scoring off for the Dynamo early in the game, just as Coach Matt DeBoer was wanting. It was her only goal of the tournament after setting up most of the goals for her teammates in the tournament. Deshani Peters scored another two goals along with Cena Carlson rounding out the four goal performance against a team that had allowed just two goals in three pool play games. Overall the Dynamo went 4-0 in the tournament allowing just four goals in total, and only one in the last three games.
