AVC (1-6-2) has had to grow up quickly, taking its lumps against an elite nonconference opponents coach, Lemuel Galvao, scheduled to prepare his team for conference play. AVC's only victory came via forfeit To lose to another person or to the state some privilege, right, or property due to the commission of an error, an offense, or a crime, a breach of contract, or a neglect of duty; to subject property to confiscation; or to become liable for the payment of a penalty, as the result of a . But the Marauders have had several excellent efforts, including a 3-1 loss on Sept. 12 to defending state champion Long Beach City, in which they trailed 1-0 until the 70th minute. Other strong showings included playing defending state quarterfinalist Pierce of Woodland Hills to a 1-1 tie on Sept. 9, and a 1-0 loss to perennial Southern California Southern California, also colloquially known as SoCal, is the southern portion of the U.S. state of California.

Freshmen midfielders Megan Couch (Desert Christian) and Natalie Miranda (Highland) and freshmen central defenders Denise Perez (Highland) and Nikiy Williams (Littlerock) have emerged as the team's top players. ``We knew it was going to be tough,'' Galvao said. ``I've been telling them it's going to be tough for a year now, even before the injuries.'' Galvao said he scheduled the most difficult nonconfernce opponents possible because the only way to advance to the playoffs is by winning conference, meaning nonconfernce losses don't adversely impact postseason prospects. ``We're getting better, and if we continue to improve I think we can have some fun,'' Galvao said. Galvao said his goal was to win two of his team's three remaining games in advance of its Sept. 29 conference opener against Chaffey of Rancho Cucamonga Rancho Cucamonga (răn`chō k  'kəmäng`gə), city (1990 pop. 101,409), San Bernardino co., S Calif. .
AVC was scheduled to play Mira Mesa of Oceanside on Tuesday, and plays Cerritos on Sept. 22 and Taft on Sept. 26. ``Hopefully that will get us some momentum going into conference,'' Galvao said. ``It takes a while for at team to gel with so many freshmen and the injuries definitely affected us, but at some point you've got to start winning,'' Galvao said. ``It's not an excuse.'' Player of the week: Defensive back Tyrell Wells' outstanding individual effort was among the few highlights for the football team in Saturday's 25-3 conference loss to Southwestern of Chula Vista Chula Vista (ch `lə), city (1990 pop. 135,163), San Diego co., S Calif., on San Diego Bay; inc. 1911. ,
