2017 Cheyenne Girls Soccer Capsule
CHEYENNE
League: Class 3A Sunset
Head coach: Jeff Dameworth, fourth season
2016 record: 12-6-4 (8-1-1 Sunset, second)
Returning letter winners (starters): Nine (six)
Top athletes: F Yadira Erives (Sr.), D Mya Heard (Sr.), D Soraya Gonzales (Sr.), MF Maria Borrero (Jr.)
Outlook: The Desert Shields bring back six starters from a team that advanced to the Southern Region semfinals last season.
Erives (26 goals), Borrero (11 goals, 4 assists) and Heard (9 goals, 10 assists) are back on offense. Gonzales is expected to be among the leaders on defense.
“With the return of Class 3A’s third, eighth and 10th leading scorers and the return of the defensive player of the year, we have a good mix of young players to go along with the veterans,” Dameworth said.
