Freshmen Danielle Snajder ‘10 Regular Season Record: 12 wins-‐3 losses-‐2 ties Playoff Record: 1-‐1 GIRLS VARSITY SOCCER 2010 SEASON SUMMARY The varsity girl’s soccer team had another solid season falling just one game short for the New England championship. Some highlights of the season include a thrilling come from behind victory over Taft, scoring three goals in the last twenty minutes, taking the lead with only one-‐minute left to play when Kelsey Adamson found the back of the net. The demanding win over league foes Choate and Deerfield as the team’s chemistry became evident through the creative and unselfish play as Faith McCarthy, Liana Hinds and Maddie Gardner had their finest games of the season. The resiliency that was shown in the Suffield Academy game, despite all of the frustrations the team managed to keep pushing and come out on top as Faith McCarthy buried the game-‐winning goal with only two minutes left. The intense win over a feisty and physical Hotchkiss team was also memorable as the Pelican defense held off a talented attack. And of course the 2-‐1 win over Phillips Exeter as senior Emily Riccio scored her first goal of the year to force Loomis to the semi-‐ finals of the New Englands. This season the Pelicans were led by a big group of seniors who will be greatly missed next year. Senior captain Alexa Yow had to deal with adversity this season as she was sidelined for the entire fall due to an ACL injury. However, she managed to keep her spirits high and in turn continued to be a great leader on the team, always positive and encouraging to her teammates. Alexa’s talent was greatly missed on the field, but she continued to play a pivotal role on the team. On senior day, Alexa got what she was hoping for all season: to start in a game. She went in for the kick-‐off and came right out, but that moment on the field was a special one, one she won’t soon forget. Co-‐captain Maddie Gardner had a solid season, her finest coming in the Deerfield game, as she was involved in four of the five Pelican goals, as well as the lone goal at Hotchkiss to secure the victory. Maddie brought a lot of energy and enthusiasm to the team and was a great player who made a lot happen and she will be hard to replace. Kathy Yannopoulos and Emily Riccio are two seniors who brought an immense amount of positive energy and enthusiasm to the field each day. These two seniors always knew how to have fun and were two of the hardest workers on the team. Emily’s first goal could not have come at a better time as she struck a beautiful ball in the top of the goal to advance the team to the semi-‐finals of the New England
tournament. Kathy constantly broke up plays and played solid defense all year. Both Emily and Kathy were extremely hard workers and their personalities and work ethic are impossible to replace. Kendra Waters and Sarah Byrne played the outside back positions and both brought something special to the team. Kendra was a speedy defender and was always positive coming down to the field. Sarah was a very physical player who never let anyone by her with out a fight. Both were hard workers and consistent defenders and it will be hard to fill their spots in the upcoming seasons. Kaily Williams was a speedy striker who used her speed to beat defenders to the goal. She always applied solid pressure and made the opposing defenders nervous every time she was on the field. She was always positive and will be missed in the upcoming years. Morgan Kille was a consistently solid defender and through her hard work and gutsy plays, she prevented many offensive opportunities for opposing teams throughout the season. Morgan showed a lot of heart and passion for the game along with a solid work ethic and that combination is a great one to have and will be hard to replace. Emily Hughes was plagued with injury for much of the season, yet she still showed up and showed her commitment to the team by continuing to encourage her teammates every chance she could. She will be missed. Alex Stevenson is a very dedicated athlete and a strong leader, as she captained the talented JV squad. Alex never let up and maintianed a positive attitude throughout the entire season. She was constantly encouraging to her teammates and consistently led by example on and off the field. Her attitude and dedication made her an asset to the program and she will be missed by all.
