PLAYERs of the month - april 2024
atharv govinda | 11b stricker black
Atharv had 3 goals in a huge game that punched the team’s ticket to the USYSA Southern Regionals in June. He has been the leading scorer for the team helping us win the Classic League D1 championship and scoring in the team’s Dallas Cup win over a Costa Rican team. Atharv is not just a great forward and goal scorer, he is a great teammate. He is loved by everyone on his team for his work ethic, determination and strong desire for the team to compete & succeed.
raelyn tweed | 12g davies
Rae has worked really hard this spring & especially during the month of April. She sets a great example & high standards with her work ethic & focused mindset in training sessions and games always looking & listening for ways to improve her game. Rae had a really solid game earlier this month whilst battling through an injury, setting the tone with her intensity and aggression off the ball by applying pressure to our opponent. Her hard work paid off when she displayed superb defending from the front that led to her scoring a nice goal with her less favored left foot! Great job Rae, keep up the good work!
isaac stanback | 14b shabout red
Isaac has lead the team in goal scoring in the last 5 games scoring hat tricks in games while still creating opportunities and assisting his teammates in other goals. Isaac is a focused player that works hard in both practices and games. He is the first defender on top and drops back all the time to help his team to defend. Isaac is liked by all his teammates for his outstanding work ethic and dedication and personality.
matteo oliva | 16b reeck red
This season Matteo has been playing dual roles on the team by playing our central midfielder on our red team and goalkeeper on our white team and has been excelling at both positions. As a keeper, he's helped the team to finish second in the division with his improving goalkeeping skills demonstrating diving saves and smart distribution to the outside. As a field player, his technical skills and intelligence on the ball has helped the team create chances, and the speed and positioning in his defensive transition has helped the team tremendously when we're playing against top teams.
