Liberty also has a 99 team yet they have never once used one of those girls, as they are all playing where they should, which is 12u. Now that the new year has hit and 99's are no longer allowed, these teams have yet to meet. Thundercats have had some great games against them but other than recent losses in friendlies or against teams with a few 99's, no one in AZ. has really stood up to the challenege. I do find it odd that these teams who were just competing with Liberty before the new year have improved since losing their 99's, where Liberty is the same team now that they were before Jan 1.
I know it was just a friendly but CATS stood up to the challenge against Liberty in the 2 to 1 loss.. It sucks that cats and liberty have yet to play in tournament against each other but when they do that game could go either way. cats looked great beating Thundercats 14to 2 in the championship game on Sunday.. Also Thundercats did not use any 99s in the fall.. All their girls are 00s or 01s.. The thundercat team that beat liberty in the Julie Reitan had no 99s.
I think Liberty is very good.. Maybe edges out the other 2 teams by a hair, but not by much any game between the top 4 can go either way.. They're not a dominating force in 10u.. They're great but the other 3 teams can be just as great on any given day. Too close to tell really who the stand out #1 is..
