2015 Spring Valley Boys Soccer Capsule
SPRING VALLEY
League: Division I-A Sunset
Head coach: James Tippett, fourth season
2014 record: 10-7-1 (10-5-1 Sunset, fourth)
Returning lettermen (starters): Seven (six)
Top athletes: D David Van Hoose (Jr.), MF Jose Lopez (Jr.), GK Ethan Harper (So.)
Outlook: The Grizzlies bring back six starters from a team that advanced to the Southern Region playoffs, but must make up for the loss of players who combined for 53 goals before graduating last year.
Lopez (3 goals, 5 assists) is the team's leading returning scorer.
"Spring Valley looks to rebuild its attack and continue to solidify its defense," Tippett said. "With only four seniors on the current roster, the Grizzlies look to take a young team to the playoffs in back-to-back years for the first time since 2007."
