2017 Moapa Valley Boys Soccer Capsule
MOAPA VALLEY
League: Class 3A Sunrise
Head coach: Jared Bushman, fifth season
2016 record: 0-15-1 (0-10 Sunrise, sixth)
Returning lettermen (starters): Ten (seven)
Top athletes: MF Israel Rubio (Sr.), D Josh Lee (Sr.), F Bryan Robles (Jr.)
Outlook: The Pirates finally have experience on their side with seven returning starters.
Rubio (10 goals, 2 assists) and Robles (5 goals, 4 assists) should be among the leaders up front with Lee helping to guide the defense.
“This will be one of the most experienced varsity teams Moapa has had in the last six years,” Bushman said. “The seniors are motivated and intelligent, and there are some talented underclassmen.
“I absolutely enjoy coaching these young men. No group deserves to win more than they do. Our goal is to do enough to get to the playoffs.”
