The Missouri Elite FC 2000 girls brought home the title again this weekend winning four straight games and conceding no goals in the process in the U11 girls division of the 2011 Ozarks Coca-Cola Dr Pepper Cup at Lake Country Soccer in Springfield, MO.
The tournment started for the girls on Friday night against a very strong Ajax Elite FC -Limpert team from St. Louis. The game winning goal was scored by Missouri Elite defender Hanah Carr on a long-range shot take from the defensive half that bounced over the keeper and into the back of the net. A second goal was provided by midfield Brinnae Cooper. Final score 2-0 in favor of Missouri Elite FC.
Missouri Elite scored four goals on Saturday in a 4-0 victory over Sedalia Select Juniors which basically secured their spot in the final on Sunday. Forward Julia Snyder started the scoring for Elite, followed by a brace for Brin Cooper and the scoring was finished with a penalty kick by Lily Ragsdale.
In Sunday mornings final pool play game, the Elite 2000 girls outscored Toni Glavin Lions – Hibernian by a score of 3-0. Forward Julia Snyder again provided the game winner. Brinnae Cooper and Everett Kirkman provided the additional goals.

Brinnae Cooper scored the game winner in the final (her fifth goal of the tournament), McKenzie Duncan scored two goals, and Julia Snyder got the final goal (her third of the tournament) as the girls cruised to a 4-0 victory over the tough KC Legends Crushers.
