2012 Foothill Girls Soccer Capsule

Head coach: Cynthia Guzman, second season

2011-12 record: 8-7-5 (5-5-4 Southwest)

Returning letter winners (starters): 10 (Seven)

Top players: MF Jillian Vigil (So.), MF Katherine Ballou (Fr.)

Outlook: The Falcons narrowly missed the postseason last year, finishing one point out of a tie for third place.

With seven starters back, a trip to the postseason seems doable.

“We are still a very young team, very talented and driven,” Guzman said. “We are consistently working together as a team and bringing all the magic pieces together.

“I have high expectations of this year’s team and making regionals is definitely our goal. We have added five freshmen to our roster this year, and they are transitioning very well into our program.”
