SEASON SUMMARY The boys' soccer team this year earned its first ever N.C.S. berth. Because the War- riors had such an outstanding pre-season, they entered the M.V.A.L. regular season as the favored team. Pre-season expecta- tions were not quite fulfilled as the team finished third in league, but the players rose to the occasion for the playoffs. They destroyed the Irvington Vikings, 3-l, in the first round and posted another playoff victory by defeating the league champion Newark-Memorial Cougars the next night. The win was a dramatic triple overtime shoot-out game in which the Warriors ended up on top 3-2. The Warriors, however, lost in N.C.S. play to the number one seed l-O to com- plete a brilliant season. Key starters for the team were Shay Wyatt, Lev Kirshner, and Darin Rice on offense, and Mike Caputi and Mike Montoya on defense. 109

SEASON SUMMARY This year's girls' soccer team could well be called the best such team in Mission history. The team finished second in the league, by only a point, to Newark- Memorial, and posted an impressive record of I5-5-l. The team members peaked when they became the M.V.A.L. Champions. They defeated Newark-Memorial twice l2-I, 2-ll to win the title and advance to N.C.S. for the first time in Mission history. This year's team was a young one with only two seniors, Aleda Jacobs and Heather Gallardo. The powerful offensive line was led by Julianna Spisak, Aleda Jacobs, and Kristie MacWilliams. The young defensive line was led by veterans Pam Brands and Julie Pacheco, and freshmen Allyson Wilcoxen, Debbie Brands, and Danielle Matthews. With all but two players returning, next year's team should be as strong too. K fs 3 L' as-9' 3' , . 14-3 -JPY' 29,4- if f-ff ' ' Sophomore Kim Woody shields the ball from a Kennedy defender. lll
