The Valley United Stars, a Reseda-based girls’ 11-and-under team, defeated North Huntington Beach, 1-0, in the semifinals of the California Youth Soccer Assn. state cup tournament Saturday.

The Stars, coached by Terry Davila, will face the Mission Viejo Gold today at Ocean View High in Huntington Beach at 9 a.m. for the championship.
