2015 Tech Girls Soccer Capsule

TECH

League: Division I-A Sunrise

Head coach: Josh Jones, 15th season

2014 record: 15-1-2 (13-0-1 Sunrise, first)

Returning letter winners (starters): Twelve (eight)

Top athletes: D Katy Orellana (Jr.), F Melissa Lopez (Jr.), MF Leslie Santos (Jr.), MF Veronica Gonzales (Jr.), MF Kanene Mossiah (So.), MF Valerie Webb (So.)

Outlook: The Roadrunners return eight starters from a team that lost only once last year — an overtime setback in the postseason — but must replace leading scorer Abrana Wielgosiak (45 goals, 15 assists) and third-leading scorer Adriana Guzman (9 goals, 17 assists).

Lopez (15 goals, 13 assists) was second on the team in scoring and solid junior and sophomore classes should pick up some of the slack.

"Tech returns a very solid group of girls who hope to continue to build off their third straight league title last season," Jones said. "If some of the veteran players and younger players can mesh together, they will be able to make another playoff run."
