Master of the Midfield: GlenOak’s Game Changer
Let’s kick things off with a standout from GlenOak. This player not only excels in midfield and defense but also holds the spotlight as a draw specialist. With a commitment to play for Otterbein next season, she’s not just a talented athlete; she’s a team captain and a guiding light for the younger players. That’s leadership in action!
Jackson’s Dynamic Duo: Debevec and Hall
Next, we head over to Jackson, showcasing Debevec, a multi-year starter who’s expected to keep the midfield on lock with her superb passing and scoring abilities. Pair her up with Hall, who recently signed a National Letter of Intent with Davenport University, and you’ve got an unstoppable force. Alongside Rebekah Yoder, they form a formidable defensive partnership that’s sure to give opposing teams a tough time this season.
Infantino’s Strong Push: Committed and Talented
And let’s not forget about Infantino! As a three-year letterwinner and an honorable mention all-region selection, she’s set to shine this spring after signing to play for Mount Union. Her commitment signals that she’s serious about making her mark on the field!
McFadden: Firepower for the Vikings
When it comes to offensive strength, look no further than McFadden. With a recent commitment to play for the University of Charleston, she’s expected to bring the heat and provide serious offensive firepower for the Vikings this season.
Goals Galore from Senften and Somers
Moving on, Senften, an honorable mention all-region player from GlenOak, had a breakout season scoring 28 goals last year. Expect her to contribute even more significantly this season! We can’t overlook Somers either—this second-team all-region standout is recognized as a capable scorer and will certainly be one to watch.
Vital Contributions: Strifler and Watson
Then there’s Strifler, a multi-year starter who’s anticipated to be a crucial player in the midfield for Jackson. This position is not for the faint-hearted, but Strifler is set to thrive! And while Watson may have missed much of her freshman year due to injury, she bounced back spectacularly, scoring an impressive 57 goals last season! As part of a remarkably improving young core at GlenOak, she’s definitely someone we’ll keep our eyes on.
The Defensive Ace: Yoder
Finally, we have Yoder, who has signed a National Letter of Intent to play for Kent State. Renowned as one of the top defensive players in the area, she’s bound to protect her team’s goal like a pro, and we’ll be watching to see her stellar performance this season.
So, Stark County, are you ready for a season filled with thrilling matches and incredible teamwork? These ten athletes are sure to light up the lacrosse fields and make their mark in the community.
