Returning the starting lineup almost intact, the Lyndonville girls soccer team is looking to improve upon last year’s 3-9-1 Genesee Region League (3-13-1 overall) record.

Midfielder Aubrey Lewis and goalie Kenzi Muck, both seniors, head that league veteran contingent which also includes seniors Alexis Montes (Defender), Lily Boyd (Midfield), Brianna Paniccia (Defender), Kelsie LaSpada (Midfield), Brooke Kiefer (Defender), Abigell Rodriguez (Midfield) and Natalie Allen (Defender) along with junior Miranda Lembcke (Midfield) and sophomore Anna Lewis (Midfield).

“We’re very excited about this season. We’ve got no gaps on the field,” said Coach Jim O’Connor. “Almost everyone is back so I think we’ll be very competitive.”
