The English Premier League outfit's 12-day trip included two games
against MLS opposition, San Jose Earthquakes and Portland Timbers, along
with a game against local PDL team, the Ventura County Fusion.
Albion spent the majority of their time in Ojai, 30 minutes south of
Santa Barbara, using Oxnard College as their daily training base.
The tour was a huge success, as can be seen by some of the media articles
