SchoolsFirst Federal Credit Union, the nation's largest credit union serving school employees, was presenting sponsor and recognized Sacramento City College soccer coaches during Sacramento Republic FC's sold-out 10th Celebration Match at Hughes Stadium.

To mark the momentous milestone, there were a variety of pre-game festivities including a commemorative t-shirt giveaway for the first 10,000 fans, a scarf giveaway at the SchoolsFirst FCU booth, and an opportunity for SchoolsFirst FCU team members to connect with the community. Prior to kick off, there was a special recognition by Josh Smith, vice president of school and community relations at SchoolsFirst FCU, to honor Alexia Poon, head coach of the Sacramento City College women's soccer team and assistant coach, Michelle Hernandez. The coaches were recognized for their positive influence on student athletes and their contributions to the community.

"SchoolsFirst FCU is dedicated to serving school employees and their families, and the fact this celebration match was held at Sac City College was a perfect opportunity to honor the soccer coaches who have made an incredible impact at this school and the community at large," stated Smith. "Coach Poon and Coach Hernandez are two school leaders who exemplify a passion for scholar athlete success and community engagement, and we are honored to have recognized them on their home field."
