Varsity Co-Captain Larry Turner (‘15) earned the achievement as one of the top ten scorers in Orange County for soccer.
“I do my best for the team and thank God for the opportunity to be up there,” said Turner.
During the preseason games, Turner’s record was 10 goals and one assist. He is currently ranked third with a total of 11 goals and two assists, including preseason and up to the second game of Sunset League.
“Larry Turner is a hard worker,” said varsity soccer player Kyle McNeil (‘15). “He will never give up on the team and is a true leader.”
Turner began playing soccer around fifth grade, making this year his eighth year of playing soccer.
“My longterm goal with soccer is to get to college and play,” said Turner. “And my dream would be to play for a Division One team.”
Turner has high hopes for his team in his senior year of Sunset League. They all have the same goal of taking the Sunset League Championship title.
Tuner is well-aware of the difficulties ahead of him. He is willing to put in everything he has to make sure that he and his team are ready for the challenges they might face.
“[Sunset League] is going to be hard, but fun,” said Turner. “Every game and every practice we are going to try our hardest, get better and leave it all out on the field.”
