Congratulations to the Lightning 99 Blue boys and coach Anthony for an explosive 6-1 victory over  DeAnza Force to win the Spring League Inter Regional Play-off Championship. This win punctuated an exciting (and seemingly endless) Spring League journey started with an unremarkable 2-1 win against Atlas on March 26th and concluded December 3rd with a dominating result against a DeAnza Force  team that had run the table in the ultra-competitive Bay Area league. December 3rd's victory gives Lightning 99 Blue bragging rights to being the #1 team in Norcal from a starting field of 82 teams within the Premier & Gold Divisions.
