“The Oakland Soul Women’s Soccer Team deserves congratulations! I am so proud of the hard work and dedication the team has shown. This team has displayed immense talent and perseverance, but I know they are not done. Western Conference Semifinals, here we come!” said Kaplan.
“I invite all Oaklanders and neighboring cities to join us in rooting for the Oakland Souls as they advance to the first round of the playoffs this Friday!”
Oakland Soul SC plays the SF Glens on Friday, July 7 at 12:30 p.m. at Skyline College, San Bruno, California.
Kaplan has championed allowing the Oakland Soul and Roots to play at the Oakland Coliseum area. On May 16, 2023, Oakland City Council members wore their Oakland Roots and Oakland Soul gear to express support of the organization’s collaboration with the African American Sports and Entertainment Group (AASEG) to bring soccer to the Oakland Coliseum area, including a new women’s professional soccer team with the USL Super League.
Additionally, on May 19, 2023, in her role representing the Oakland community as the Chair of the Coliseum Authority Board, she and her colleagues on the Oakland Alameda County Authority (OACCA) voted in favor of directing staff to undertake the process to allow the Oakland Roots and Soul to play at the Oakland Arena Area.

Special to The Post
DA Pamela Price has charged Elias Nathaniel Jimenez, 22, and co-defendant Maria Rosalia Martinez, 43, with multiple felonies for an alleged freeway shooting in the City of Hayward.
Both defendants are charged with one count of attempted murder, assault with a semi-automatic firearm, an additional count of shooting at an occupied motor vehicle, and possession of a large capacity magazine, among other charges. In addition, Jimenez is charged with two special allegations: use of a firearm and use of a loaded unregistered firearm.
The criminal complaint alleges that on or about Aug. 6, Jimenez and Martinez shot into another vehicle that was occupied by an adult and an underage passenger traveling on Interstate 880.
“These allegations involve shooting from a moving vehicle at another car driving on the freeway, which is beyond dangerous,” said Price. “The charges, which include enhancements, reflect the seriousness of these alleged crimes and my commitment to hold those accountable who use guns in our community for such senseless and violent acts.”
If convicted and sentenced of all charges, Jimenez faces a maximum of 23 years and 9 months in state prison while Martinez faces a maximum of 13 years and 2 months in state prison. Both defendants are scheduled to appear for a bail hearing on August 27 in Department 112 at the Wiley Manuel Courthouse.
