The girls’ varsity soccer team is coached by Ryan Hickman and Steve Fitzsimmons. The girls started their season with a scrimmage at Mira Monte on Nov. 13. Hickman said, “The season is off to a good start. The scrimmage against Mira Monte allowed us to see where we were at fitness and personnel-wise. It was a nice warm-up going into the Fowler Tournament last week. We have a strong team and look to compete for an SSL championship this season.” Izabella Nuncio scored a point during the second half of the game. She said, “I feel like the season so far is going good, we’re learning how to play as a team. I look forward to winning league with my team.” The scrimmage ended with a tied score of 1-1.

On Nov. 28, they started their Fowler Tournament. They were tied 1-1 and the following day they tied 4-4. The varsity players moved up in the tournament and continued on Saturday, Dec.1. They ended the Fowler Tournament with a score of 1-3 and getting second place. Hickman said, “The tournament went well, although we were running on empty toward the end. Traveling a total of 18 hours in a bus over 4 days didn’t help. However, we battled to a 2nd place finish, falling just short in the title game versus Fowler.”
