The Blue & Orange will return goalie Preston Swink who recorded 6 shutouts a year ago, and a save percentage of 87%. Also returning in the back are seniors Austin Bell, Brian Park and Jason Cho. The Guard will be led in the midfield by Josh White, Kenai Walker, Cory Scheel, and Clay Wells.

Soccer season 2008-2009
|
|
Brook Hill soccer had another good showing in 2007-2008. The Guard qualified for the state playoffs for the 9th time in the 10 year history of the program, and the 2008-2009 Guard will look to continue that success. Brook Hill will return 6 starters from last years team as they look to continue their success in 2008-2009. Defensively the Guard return Brian Park, Wesley Wood, and Austin Bell, in the midfield Kyle Taylor is back and the Guard will get center midfielder Martin Markovski back from his knee injury, and in the front Josh White returns as the Guards second leading scorer last season. Preston Swink, who was a defender for the Guard last year, will make the transition to Goalkeeper for this season. This seasons team will be a young group. There is a large group of juniors and freshman on this years team that we will not have any seniors. It is a great opportunity to develop our players and look to continue to build our program. |
