Girls Soccer: Walnut on a mission; Dranch, San Dimas win too

Above: Walnut's Veronica Ramos (2) celebrates after scoring two goals with one assist in Saturday's 4-0 win over Newbury Park. The Mustangs are looking for their fourth championship this decade, and are the most complete team I've seen this season. Ramos and Nadia Link are a great combination up top, and central midfielder Natalie Martin is outstanding. And if there's a better goalkeeper than Megan Allaire, I haven't seen her. After watching Arcadia the past few years working at the Star-News, I would love to see both teams win second round games, and meet up in the quarterfinals.
