2025/10/02

As the 2025 USL Championship season winds down, the Union have not fared well — but against fellow California clubs, MBFC are top dogs in the Golden State, which was helped significantly this past Saturday with a win over Sacramento Republic, our dominance over state rival clubs! The Union’s brickwall keeper, Nico Campuzano, is up for Save of the Week (Vote NOW), and electric midfielder Adrian Rebollar and coach Jordan Stewart were included in the Team of the Week!

The 2025 USL Championship season is in its homestretch, and the Union is trying to sneak into the playoffs for the first time in its history. Last Saturday’s loss put us at the bottom of the Western Conference. Still, a home-heavy schedule gives us a slim chance of seeing the postseason for the first time in our short history. We want to hear from you! What can this team do to get more people in the stadium next season? Call (831) 264-8060 and leave us a message. You might hear your message on the

The Drop In ·

2025/07/25

Monterey Bay FC is fighting to hang on to one of the last playoff spots in the West. They went down to Tulsa last Friday and played one strong half. The second half was a different story, and they left Oklahoma with a 2-1 loss. This week they are back in Jagermeister Cup action against AV Alta. A win in So Cal gives the boys a good shot at moving past the group stage. At least we get to see a familiar face as 831 native and former Union player Walmer Martinez has 3 goals for AV Alta this

Indy Loss Column Again

The Drop In ·

2025/07/11

Monterey Bay FC went out to Indiana looking to turn things around but came back with more questions. A 3-0 loss was overshadowed by the injury of Nico Campuzano, who has been a brick wall between the pipes this season.

Monterey Bay FC came back home after a tough match in Las Vegas to face one of the hottest teams in the Western Conference. The midfield once again struggled to gain its footing, and El Paso Locomotive took all three points at Cardinale. The Union is still hanging on to that 6th spot in the Western Conference, but they are going to have to pick it up if they want to stay there.

Then on Saturday, Orange County SC came up the coast looking for revenge. The boys put up 3 goals again to take their second match of the season against Orange County.
