June 16, 2016-In an Eastern New York Youth Soccer Association (ENYYSA) championship game played between two Long Island Junior Soccer League (LIJSL) teams, the Brentwood Scorpions shut out the Oceanside Blaze, 4-0, to bring the Arch Capital Group Cup back to Brentwood. The Girls-Under-13 final was played at the Peter Collins Soccer Park in Plainview on June 11.
 
Cheilis Rodriguez scored two goals and Milena Vasquez and Yarissa Vasquez, who are cousins, each scored one goal for Brentwood. Keeper Kymberli Gonzalez recorded the shutout in goal.
 
“It was a great game. Our girls never stopped playing against an excellent Oceanside team,” said Brentwood coach Hector Santos.
 
Oceanside received the Howard Rubenstein Sportsmanship Award as determined by the game officials. Now living in Kentucky, Mr. Rubenstein was seemingly involved in every facet of New York soccer for decades and is a member of the Halls of Fame of Eastern New York, the US Amateur Soccer Association and the LIJSL.
 
“This cup competition is a great event in that it gives young people an opportunity to experience high levels of competition. And you don’t have to be the best team in the state to win a championship with the Arch Capital Group Cup,” said Brian Hughes, Senior Vice President and Chief Actuary of Arch Capital.
 
With over 100,000 youth soccer players––both boys and girls––and more than 25,000 volunteers, the non-profit Eastern New York Youth Soccer Association (ENYYSA) stretches from Montauk Point, Long Island to the Canadian border.
