Team USA had Tim Howard, and our Lady Cavaliers had Alexis Sheffey protecting our net !

Alexis Sheffey
(Senior)

2nd Team All Three Rivers District – Goalie

VHSL Honorable Mention All Region 3D – Goalie

Alexis has been a very important piece in our defensive half of the field her entire career. She has had another huge season for us collecting 146 saves along with 7 shutouts. This season we had a very new back line. Alexis did an awesome job with stepping up talking to her defense along with helping them throughout the game/season.

      She also did a great job of getting off of her line more this season to prevent dangerous opportunities for opponents on through balls, corner kicks, and set pieces near the box. This was huge for us this season. During the regular season, she only gave up 17 goals. This was a huge improvement for us because we gave up 16 goals in two games against one team last season.

  There were also only 3 regular season games where more than one goal was given up. She had an exceptional game against the 2a state runner up this year, only allowing them 1 goal, and she had 22 saves in the game. She had many other huge games this season, but that was one that stood out. She also was able to come out of the goal twice this season to play in the field.

     She took advantage of those opportunities in the field, scoring 3 goals and getting 1 assist. Alexis was a captain for us this season and was a great leader on and off of the field. She has now written her name down in the program’s record books. Alexis now holds the all-time saves program record with 579 career saves. She also holds the program record with most shutouts in a career with 28.

   Alexis also holds the record for the lowest goals scored against average for a career with 1.33 goals per game, and that’s with her having over 40 career starts.

Congratulations to Alexis Sheffey and the Sheffey family !

Lady Cavaliers Soccer : We see 👀 you, Savannah Swecker ! Way to represent The Hill on the Pitch!!

Savannah Swecker
(Senior)

1st Team All Three Rivers District – Forward


VHSL 2nd Team All Region 3D – Forward

Savannah was a key part of our offense this season. We really used her speed a lot up top. Her hard work and determination also helped her be such a huge part of our offense. She finished as the second leading scorer on our team again this season.

   Savannah scored 10 goals with 2 game winners and had 3 assists along with 1 game winning assist. She really stepped up for us this season on the field and off of the field. Savannah was one of our captains and did a great job of leading by example in practice and games. On the field, she has grown so much as a player. This kid has only been playing soccer since her sophomore year, but you would have never known that based on how she plays. She has learned the game so much and did a great job of knowing when she needed to stay up or when she needed to drop into our midfield to help defensively.

    There were some games we went into more defensive minded, and Savannah was always ready to drop in defensively if we needed her too. She always has a very positive and upbeat attitude, and it definitely rubbed off on all of those around her, which made a huge impact on our team. She really stepped up for us, especially during the second half of the season, scoring 8 of her goals during that time.

Congratulations to Savannah Swecker and the Swecker family !
