⭐️Player High light of the month:
Huge shoutout this month to our freshman, Ella Currier!
Ella started the fall on JV as a defender and quickly earned her spot on varsity as a forward, bringing a unique spark to her game. She’s also part of Ryan’s Healthcare Association, working toward college credits in health sciences through Holy Family University, and is set to graduate from Ryan in 2029 with an associate degree.
On the field and track, Ella has had a standout year—setting a new PR in long jump and helping Coppa Storm bring home a state cup championship. In the May 16th final, she scored the tying goal to keep her team alive on the way to the win.
Next stop: regionals. Good luck to Ella and the rest of the Storm girls!⛈️

⭐ Player Spotlight – Hayden Lee
Hayden’s growth this year has been incredible, earning a spot in the Varsity starting XI after beginning on JV just nine months ago. Her work ethic never wavered, even through challenges. Off the field, she earned First Honors while balancing Tri-M Music Honor Society.

No 5, No problem. Just do the math!

Last year, one of our old friends thought she performed so well during the season that she would retire the number 5 from our program for the 2025 season herself. Thank goodness we have new uniforms coming this summer🤩 (Molly if you see this just know we’ve been blaming your brothers for the missing uniform, not you queen)

🫶🏼 Thank you to our Parents Association for hosting a great banquet, this past month, to celebrate our season. We were honored to have boys program alumni attend as special guests and begin meaningful conversations about growing our alumni association. It was a special night for our entire program.

March Updates 🌈☘️: We’re excited to be hosting free clinics every Sunday this month for girls in 6th–8th grade who are interested in experiencing high school soccer. It’s a great opportunity to train, build skills, and get a true feel for what it takes to compete at the next level.

Birthdays 🥳

Player Highlight of the month:
After battling back from an ACL tear and months of intense rehabilitation, Aubrey returned to the field in some of the best shape we’ve ever seen her in—stronger, faster, and more determined than ever. Aubrey doesn’t just represent our program—she elevates it.

This year, Aubrey joined our indoor track team, where she earned First Team All-Catholic honors—an incredible accomplishment that reflects her athletic versatility and drive. In the classroom, she continues to excel, earning First Honors last trimester. Aubrey also serves as captain of the lacrosse team, further proving that her leadership extends beyond just one program.
