COACH’S COMMENT
“… I knew coming into this season it was going to be a rebuilding year. Our team had only three returning starters from last season plus we only had one returning 8th grader in Evan Rawlings with middle school soccer experience.” That forced us to rely heavily on a 7th Grade group that had many new faces and big shoes to fill from last year’s team.” This group improved tremendously throughout the last couple months and with a large group of returning players in 2017, it should be an exciting season next year.”
