Sign-up Informational Letter
The high school boys soccer team is looking for prospective athletes to compete in the fall of 2024. If you have never played soccer, that is fine. I had starting varsity players in the past that did not play soccer until they were in high school. If you have the willingness to listen, work hard, and fit into the roles we need, then you will be a success. Regardless of ability, a team sport is a great way to get into shape and build the skills and resiliency that will help shape your future.
The boys soccer team is looking for any potential players and managers entering grades 9-12 in the fall of 2024. Please fill out this form if you are interested. Soccer Sign-up From LINK
Boys soccer highlights over the past few seasons.
In 2021, we qualified for the section final game. Lost in OT to go to state against Fort Atkinson.
In 2022, we were seeded 5th out of 18 teams in the sectional. Won our 1st regional game 5-0.
In 2023, we won our first regional game 2-1 vs Freedom.
44 players last season. This allowed us to have three teams so all players had ample playing time.
The JV team had a solid winning record in 2023.
Finished 2nd in conference in 2021 and 3rd in 2022.
Player/Parent Meeting: Wednesday, May 15th at 7pm in Room B141 (my classroom). Park in the West Parking Lot and enter the doors closest to my room.
We need you to help continue our winning traditions.

We need players! The high school boys soccer team is looking for prospective athletes to compete in the fall of 2021. If you have never played soccer, that is fine. I have two starting varsity players this season that did not play high school soccer until their senior year. If you have the willingness to listen, work hard, and fit into the roles we need, then you will be a success. Regardless of ability, a team sport is a great way to get into shape and build the skills and resiliency that will help shape your future.

Impact Testing (for those needing it) on Tuesday, March 16th right after school
1st Official Practice - March 22nd
Game #1 - March 30th
I am hoping to have some open practices before the official season starts. This will depend on gym time.
Q&A: How will spring season work with baseball? Currently, we have no games scheduled on days of baseball games. I am trying to have our varsity soccer games after 6:30pm so baseball players can practice after school. This will only be possible when we play at a field with lights. Game challenges will happen if we need to make-up games or when we have the state play-offs (not sure on set dates yet). The overlap should be Three to four weeks depending on play-offs.
Open Contact Day Practices...
We have been approved to run open practices with coaches assistants for 15 sessions. Communication will be mainly through REMIND. Please invite any student that might be interested in experiencing the game of soccer.
3:15pm - 5pm after school weather permitting.
