2013 Green Valley Boys Soccer Capsule

 

GREEN VALLEY

Head coach: Jacob Rivera, fourth season

2012 record: 14-5-3 (6-3-1 Northeast, third)

Returning letter winners (starters): 13 (nine)

Top players: D Mark Ocampo (Sr.), F Roberto Rodriguez (Sr.), MF Kade Kochevar (Sr.), GK Bryant Peralta (Jr.)

Outlook: The Gators bring back nine starters from a team that placed third in the Northeast, but fashioned a strong postseason run and advanced to the state final.

Among the returnees is Rodriguez, who had 13 goals and 13 assists last year.

“We will have to rebuild the backline as all four defenders and goalkeeper will be replaced by underclassmen,” Rivera said. “The team must learn to play together and create more scoring opportunities as a collective unit.

“This team has all of the pieces necessary to compete in the playoffs, but must to learn to work with the new faces and underclassmen to be successful.”
