Saturday, April 21st. The Storm coming off a 9-1 route over Phoenix Monsoons last week , they wanted to be careful not to be over confident, especially facing the Fullerton Rangers who controlled them in a 5-0 loss in the Open Cup Qualifier last month. But since last month this is a whole new team and a new coach. So the ones that got caught off guard was the Rangers who where handed there first lost since last  month and the Storm washed out first place for  he Fullerton team. Going in to Saturdays game the Rangers  where 2-0-0 and the Storm 1-1-0 both undefeated and just 2 points separated the two.
The Storm however came in the game with the highest goals scored  in the Southern Division of the Western Conference 11 in just two games.
