Hollister
Tie
1-1
0-0-1 (0-1-2)

Down 1-0 and with time running out, Sweeper Joey Melo made a long run in transition play deep into Hollister territory. After receiving a cross from the wing he was taken down well inside the Hollister box. David Jones converted the PK in the 79th minute and the Chieftain's opened MBL play with a tie.

12 Dec 2001
Monterey
Win
2-1
1-0-1 (1-1-2)

Erik Carvalho split the defense twice (once on an assist from Luca Casabella) and went one-on-one with Monterey's keeper to send the Chieftains into the half with a 2-0 lead. The defense bent, but did not break in the first few minutes of the second half to hold on for Palma's first win of the season

Alisal
Loss
2-0
1-1-3 (1-2-4)

The Chieftains held Alisal scoreless for 53 minutes with tough defense and the courageous goal keeping of Joey Melo, but couldn't generate the offense needed to score against an equally tough Alisal defense.

12 Jan 2002
Alvarez
Loss
6-1
1-2-3 (1-3-4)

Keeper Joey Melo's 10 first half saves kept Palma alive. The defense played tough all day with courageous efforts by Clayton Allison, Joe Lansford, Scott Sierra and Carlos Torres, but in the end could not keep Ibarra contained with his diagonal runs as the Alvarez midfield overloaded one side first then the other.

16 Jan 2002
Gilroy
Loss
4-0
1-3-3 (1-4-4)

Gilroy capitalized early on their control of the midfield taking control of the match in the first minute. The Chieftain's reorganized at the half, brought the midfield under control and were able to create several opportunities of their own, but the Mustang's defense held.

18 Jan 2002
Live Oak
Loss
3-0
1-4-3 (1-5-4)

Palma moved the ball well controlling the midfield for most of the match and creating several opportunities, but the forwards could not get by the physical play of the Live Oak defense for a shot.

23 Jan 2002
Hollister
Loss
1-0
1-5-3 (1-6-4)

Coming off a tough, four game stretch, the Chieftains came ready to play. They moved the ball well through the midfield and into the attacking third, but for the third match in a row could not convert.
