The Newman girls’ soccer team has the makings of a successful season: strong leadership, quality coaching, lots of talent, and a desire to win. The team lacks only one thing: a goalie.

Last year’s senior, Izzy Lane, had been the only goalie for the past 2 years. Now, the team is searching for a new one. Everyone in the team is trying out their skills in the goal, so some people might have to play in goal even if they prefer to play on the field. They are also trying to find a potential goalie from the volleyball team because the skills for volleyball (height, hand-eye coordination, willingness to hit the ground) would translate well. Hopefully someone with a hidden talent for the goal emerges.

In other news, the team’s first game is against Haynes Academy, this Thursday, November 15. They have high hopes and are ready for thee season to begin!
