The Atlantic girls soccer team brings back ten of it’s eleven starters from last season and they hope that experience can help them reach even higher this season. The Trojans are coming off an 11-7 campaign last year and head coach Dan Vargason said they hope to build on that.

The Trojans have some good strength on both sides of the field with Edria Brummer an All-Conference returner at goalie and Jada Jensen leading the offensive attack as the school’s all-time leading goal scorer. Coach Vargason said the difference for this team achieving their goal of competing for the Hawkeye Ten title will come down to effort.

The team has been able to work back into their formations fairly quickly with their returning experience but Coach Vargason said they just need to start to get some more movement and use their athleticism to their advantage.

The Trojans are off to a 1-1 start to the season and are at it again tonight against Missouri Valley.
