In 2022, the Williams Yellowjackets defeated the Winters Warriors to win their third Northern Section Division III championship.
This year, however, the ‘Jackets were unable to replicate the win as they fell 1-4 to the No.1 seeded Warriors on Saturday, Feb. 25.
Kaled Rosales scored in the 20th minute of the match for No. 2 Williams, but unfortunately it was the only score the Yellowjackets could muster.
Despite the loss, the ‘Jackets earned a berth in the CIF NorCal Boys Soccer Championships as the No. 8 seed and traveled to McClymonds High School in Oakland on Tuesday to play No. 1 Leadership, the same team that ousted them from the first round of the state tournament last season. ■
