I didn't really pay attention to the soccer team early in the season, but they started to catch my attention later on as they continue to have success on the field. When playoffs came, I became a huge fan and started going to all their games. These guys have more skill than I thought they would. I got really into their games and started to do what I do best...show my spirit!
They had themed games like "pink out" and blue and gold and our dedicated and growing student section got more into it every game. The soccer boys had some close wins in overtime that ended with the student section going crazy. At state, our number of fans was bigger than it had ever been for soccer games. Losing our voices for the boys was totally worth it for our Boys Soccer State Champs.
From the Goalie (Jack):
I wasn't ready for my high school soccer career to be over. But since it had to come to an end, we made sure we came out on top. The energy in the USM community following our birth to the state tournament was palpable and it was only heightened during our two state games. It was an incredible experience to play in front of the school community and it is something I will never forget. It was an incredible honor to bring home the state title for the team and for the school!
