See what the players and coach from Dunbar High School had to say about the upcoming 2018 girls’ soccer season.
Jared Peck, Real-Time Sports Reporter for the Lexington Herald-Leader and co-founder of SoccerintheBluegrass.com, visited all nine Lexington high schools and spoke with coaches and players about the upcoming season. Over the next several days, SITB will release videos from the interviews used for the Herald-Leader’s preseason preview: “Girls’ soccer: This season’s top teams, biggest games and best players.”
Excerpted from Kentucky.com. Read the full story at the link above.
Coach: Megan Poage (first season).
Last season, 43rd District: 10-5-3 (38 GF/14 GA), lost 3-2 on penalty kicks in district semis to Tates Creek.
Outlook: A new coach and new energy could make Dunbar feel more like a reload than a rebuild. “The girls coming back know, ‘OK, we’ve got to put in that much harder, that much more work.’ … Their drive and their want is awesome.” Poage said.
Player’s take: Senior midfielder Audrey Rawls — “We have Coach Poage, now, and she’s been amazing. … She’s brought a lot of positivity, and I feel the team bonding together.”
