Council Rock South Girls' Soccer Preview

COUNCIL ROCK SOUTH GIRLS’ SOCCER PREVIEW

Coach:  Nick Heim (5^th year as HC, 12^th year overall)

Assistant coaches: Paula Jurewicz, Brian Chambers

Last year’s record: 8-2-1; SOL Patriot co-champions

Notable losses:

Aubrey Hondros- All-State- Bloomsburg University

Kimmie Herritt- All- League- UMBC

Sydney Mandel- All-League- Ursinus

Carley Irvin- All League- Wofford (Lacrosse)

Key returners: Dana DeDominicis (12/D), Maddie Deal (12/M), Sophia Dingui (12/D), Erin Delaney (12/ D), Kennedy Kuechler (12/D), Kate Millevoi (12/M), Skyler Scarborough (12/M), Julia Levin (12/M)

Strengths/Question Marks: A solid core of returning players mixed with a crop of young talent.

Outlook: “It’s no secret that the scheduling this year with our in-league rivals and out of conference quality will leave some quality SOL teams on the outside looking in when they would normally qualify for the postseason. Getting through the toughest league schedule in the state will be grueling, but it will harden those teams for the playoff run. We look to continue to come together as a unit and represent our school and community against the best teams around. Competition at practices has been high, and we hope that leads to a chance to win the league again this year. There’s no mental breaks in the schedule, so discipline and experience will be a factor we rely on for success this year.”
