Stephens County will rely on a strong defense in what could see the Indians be in the mix at the top of the region.

PRESEASON INFO

2024 Record: 5-12; No Playoffs
Head Coach: Rob Worsley (4th Season)
Returning Starters: 6
Key Departures: Levi Burtt, Pierre Kouadio
“Levi graduated last year and his presence in our midfield and leadership as a captain will be missed,” says Worsley. “Pierre was our leading goal scorer but will not be playing high school soccer this season due to a commitment to his club team. His creativity in the midfield and ability to score will be greatly missed.”
Key Players: Josiah Schell, Ethan Green, Wesley Vickers, Aiden McCullom
“Josiah enters his senior year as a 4-year starter on varsity. He will be running our inside midfield. Ethan is a junior who returns as a centerback and will be anchoring our backline in that role. Wesley and Aiden will be key returners for our offense and will be looked upon to create and finish goal scoring opportunities.”
Strengths: “Our team returns three out of four starters on the backline along with a returning goalkeeper,” says Worsley. “Our defense needs to be strong this season and I anticipate that they will be up to the task.”

“Our team goal this year is to compete for the Region Championship and to secure a place in the State Tournament,” exclaims Worsley.
