18U: CT IMPACT PREMIER VS. UNITY-ARVIDSON/COPPOLA

CT Impact Premier and Unity-Arvidson reached the 18U championship in the 18U championship game and both decided not to play the final and finished as co-champions on Saturday at Adventure Field.

Adelphi-committed 2026 OF Ava Pearson (.667 AVG, 6 for 9, 3 BBs), 2027 C/OF/3B Jayden Fives (4 for 11, grand slam, 7 RBIs), Southern New Hampshire-committed 2026 RHP/3B/1B Zoey Wilds (5 for 9, 2 doubles), Saint Leo-committed 2026 P/SS/OF Sophia Galligan (5 for 11, 4 RBIs, HR) and UConn-committed 2026 MIF/OF/UT Jordan McCue (HR) were the offensive leaders for CT Impact Premier.

Princeton-committed 2026 LHP Kaitlyn Dzialo (12 IP, 11 hits, 20 Ks, 2.90 ERA) led the CT Impact Premier pitchers.

“For me, today said a lot about our character,” CT Impact coach Mike Santiago said. “We were down players and brought up two kids from our 16U team to help and they both contributed big today. This team knows how to fight and battle and they did just that all day. We take pride in our energy and the way we respond to mistakes or adversity and today those 10 players gave us their all and played not only for themselves, but the name on the front of their shirts as well.”

Pitching led the charge for Unity. 2026 P/2B Haley Arvidson and 2028 P/1B/OF Allie Sellers each won two games, shutting down some very strong 18U programs in the Mystics and the Intensity.

The offense was led by 2028 OF Eama Rosario (2 HRs), 2027 3B/OF Kaitlyn Rose (1 HR, .500 AVG), 2027 1B Liv Vasti (.500 AVG), 2027 OF Cara Luna (.429 AVG, 5 runs) and Sellers (.429 AVG, 5 RBIs).

“Unity NY got off to a strong start to the fall season, going a perfect 4-0 and sharing the PGF Show Me The Money Tournament title with the Connecticut Impact when the tournament needed to be shortened to one day due to oncoming storms in the area,” Unity coach James Coppola said.

CT Impact Premier defeated TNY NY, 5-4, New Jersey Thunderbolts, 10-0, Newtown Rock-Cahill, 3-1, and DNP’d Unity-Arvidson in bracket play.

Unity-Arvidson/Coppola defeated Mystics National-Garrett, 5-3, NJ Intensity-KOD, 7-4, and DNP’d CT Impact Premier in bracket play.

“This is our first season with Unity, previously Hericanes,” Unity coach Jesse Arvidson said. “The last two teams were loaded with D1 commits, so this was a huge step for our girls. (It) shows them how talented they truly are and all are capable of playing at next level. We have three true 18U players and the rest are 16U and a couple 14U eligible, still. (It was a) huge accomplishment for this young group. Just scratching (the) surface.”

16U: PA CHAOS NATIONAL-SPINA/CIMINO VS. NEWTOWN ROCK NATIONAL-BODICK

PA Chaos National-Spina/Cimino and Newtown Rock National-Bodick reached the 16U championship game and both teams decided not to play the final and finished as co-champions on Saturday at Adventure Field.

2029 C/3B Sydney Hahn (2 triples, 1 double, 7 RBIs), 2028 1B/OF Alison Bodick (4 for 6 with a walk-off HR) and Seton Hall-committed 2027 RHP/1B Taryn Ashenfelter (2-run HR in the semifinals) were the offensive leaders for Newtown Rock.

2027 RHP Dagney Mobley (8 IP, 2 runs) and 2027 RHP/OF Mabel Klossner (picked up the six-out save in the semifinals) led the Newtown Rock pitching staff.

“This one means a lot — it was a total team effort,” Newtown Rock coach Dave Bodick said. “Every one of the players contributed all day. It was a long one — 14 hours from first pitch to the end. We had girls coming and going all day with college visits, homecoming and weddings. (I’m) very proud of how this team stuck together all day — it was a long one — but proud of all of these girls for fighting. Winning tournaments is hard, especially all of these games in one day. It takes a team — all of them. (I’m) extremely proud to be a part of it and seeing how much this group has grown over the past few weeks.”

Newtown Rock National-Bodick defeated Invasion Fastpitch Showcase, 9-8, Empire State Huskies-Harris, 8-1, PA Chaos Gold-Ward, 4-3, and DNP’d PA Chaos National-Spina/Cimino in bracket games.

PA Chaos National-Spina/Cimino defeated Central PA Xplosion-Leffler, 15-2, Unity-Torres/Jones, 4-0, LI Surge Fastpitch, 5-0, and DNP’s Newtown Rock National-Bodick in bracket play.
