LJ Ai although the girls' soccer team suffered losses, they were able to onaiiEX THE ODDS he girls' soccer team would have to work very hard to hold on to their C.C.S. title this year. Although the kickers recruited many line rookie players, repeating an ex- cellent season similar to last year's seemed very unlikely. With the loss of nine starters from last year's team, the Saints still managed to produce a winning record of 15-6-2. Shawn Conroy stated, I think the team did a lot better than anyone expected after losing so many seniors.” The team was off to a good start until one of three seniors, Kim Lychak, was injured in the Holiday tourna- ment. Kim was the starting keeper until she broke both bones in her lower leg only minutes into the second half of the Miramonte game. Kim was bed ridden for two weeks, in a wheelchair for one month, and on crutches the following week. Everybody was real close and got along. The whole team was shocked when Kim got hurt, Valerie Orsolini recalled. Kim's injury forced the team to find a new keeper. Keri Sanchez, an offensive player, was brought back to goalie. This change helped the Saint's defense yet drained some of their goal scoring power. The kickers lost to Independence twice in the regular season yet held on to a 1 -0 win against them for second place in the M.H.A.L. The kickers ended their season with a 2-1 loss to San Mateo in the C.C.S. playoffs. Lara Brink scored the only goal for the team with a pass from Debbie Stephenson. Keri Sanchez and Lara were the top scoring players throughout the season with eleven and ten goals scored respectively. Key play makers throughout the season were Terry Pashoian and Holly Brink. Terry led the team with ten assists followed by Holly's eight assists. The kickers' defense was held together by Valerie Orsolini, Nicole Haggerty, and Sheila Dayog. When people said Girl's Varsity Soccer would not have a strong team this year, coach Clark was simple and to the point, insuring It's just not true! After completing a win- ning season and making it to the C.C.S. Playoffs, this team has clearly proven themselves. By Bill Oliver. Tho big score.
