Battle of LA
I'm going with Galaxy. Just too much fire power and seems like the roster has gotten even more loaded. Not knocking LAUFA at all, they are a strong squad and battle for every ball. 3-1 Galaxy
SCDSL B2003 Champions - Congrats to Final 8!
Godinez Black vs. Barton - Godinez Black is the pick here. Undefeated in league, top ranked team in us youth soccer rankings when they came out last week. Beat Barton 4-0 in league. Barton beat TFA on pks last week and I'm sure they will bring a lot of energy, but too much fire power from Godinez Black. 4-1 Godinez Black
Godinez White vs. West Coast - West Coast is my pick here. Great win last weekend for Godinez White, but they run into the well oiled Kirsch machine this weekend. Kirsch moves the ball very well. Kirsch had a tight game vs. Pats LA last weekend and I think they will turn it on early and not step off the gas. I just don't see an upset in this game either. 3-1 West Coast
Slammers vs. Strikers - I''m calling this a tie. They played each other at West Coast tourney and Strikers won 2-0. That being said, I obviously don't know if there were guest players or players missing, etc., but I'm basing my results on that. BUT...Slammers doesn't lose very much, and all of there games are very close. 1-1 end of regulation...So...I'm taking Strikers here in PK's.
SDSC vs. Strikers Smith - First off, congrats to Strikers for putting up 5 goals against Temecula. I'm still wondering if that is a typo. Not a knock on Strikers, but they only scored 10 goals in 10 league games and then they put up 5 goals against a Champions League #7 team. Strikers Smith is running up against a great team though in SDSC and the run will most likely end. 2-0 SDSC is my guess.

I picked a couple upsets at a very quick glance, but too early to really analyze each game. Good luck to all 32 in this one. I'm sure there will be a couple upsets and a few bronze or silver teams putting themselves on the map with a big win this weekend.
