Two of three Menlo-Atherton Vikings playoff teams scored victories over the weekend, continuing the football club’s pattern of success in Peninsula Pop Warner postseason play.
The undefeated Vikings PeeWees (11-12 year olds) blanked the Berkeley Bears 28-0, while the Junior PeeWees (9-10 year olds) turned back the Hollister Vikings 18-12. Both teams will continue playoff competition this weekend against opponents to be designated.
Vikings Junior Midgets (13-14) dropped a 32-6 decision to Daly City.
The Vikings football club is launching an outreach effort to attract players, coaches and support personnel for the 2012 Pop Warner season. Click here for more information.
Both the PeeWee and Junior PeeWee teams are undefeated this season, as the MA Vikings continue to their march into the upper echelon of Peninsula Pop Warner football.
For the players, coaches and other volunteer supporters and fans of the Vikings, it’s been a spectacular season of fun, success and learning the love of the game.
Good luck in this weekend’s playoff semifinal match-ups!
Best teams on the peninsula? Great job!
When do you play again?
Vikings Jr. PeeWees play Saturday at 9 a.m. at Thompson Field in Alameda vs. Berkeley Bears.
PeeWees play Sunday at 11 a.m., M-A Field, vs. the Hollister Vikings.
Poster – thanks for the post. A minor correction on the location of the PeeWee game below –
MA Vikings Jr. PeeWees, extending their undefeated season, coached by Harold Atkins and staff, play Saturday at 9 a.m. at Thompson Field in Alameda vs. Berkeley Bears, as you correctly listed.
MA Viking PeeWees play Sunday at 11 a.m., @ WOODSIDE HS, vs. the Hollister Vikings.
The MA Vikings PeeWee squad, coached by Steve Stenstrom and staff to a magnificent 7-0-1 season earning the top seed in the playoffs at their age group, play Hollister AT WOODSIDE HS, not at MA. Hollister and MA played earlier in the season to a tie, the only game not won by the MA PeeWee team this season. One anticipates a great matchup and highly entertaining game at Woodside.
All winners this weekend advance to the Peninsula Pop Warner League Championship round next weekend in San Jose.
Good luck to all!
Love youth football – what a great game for kids to learn about themselves.
Good luck Vikings!
