2013 Moapa Valley Boys Soccer Capsule

MOAPA VALLEY

Head coach: Jared Bushman, second season

2012 record: 1-15-3 (0-11-1 I-A Sunrise, seventh)

Returning letter winners (starters): Four (three)

Top players: MF Arturo Gutierrez (Sr.), CB Arnulfo Frias (Sr.)

Outlook: The Pirates lost 13 players from last year’s squad, and will need to fill a lot of holes.

Gutierrez (three goals, two assists) and Frias (one goal, two assists) lead the short list of returnees.

“With nine underclassmen on the varsity squad, there is not a lot of experience,” Bushman said. “The boys have been working hard in the offseason and really gained a passion for the sport.

“Hopefully this group of boys will reverse the fortunes of Moapa Valley soccer.”
