York – Class B Team Preview (Girls)

Previewing an upcoming season is never an easy task. To do so properly takes countless hours of emails, observations, statistical research, conversation, and reflection. Adding onto that difficulty are challenges, such as a cancelled 2020 season and lingering COVID restrictions, making our preview preparation feel almost impossible.

Despite these obstacles, the approaching 2021 season and its participants – whether that be players, coaches, fans, or families – deserve some semblance of normalcy. Soccer in Nebraska and all those who participate deserve to be promoted. Over the course of the next several weeks, NEST will overview EVERY high school soccer program in our state. This was done to the best of our ability using all of the information we could collect.

Nebraska Soccer Talk is here to support many fantastic teams, coaches, players, fans, and referees that make our game possible. One mission of this venture is to discover and centralize newsworthy information. This can only be done in collaboration with individual programs. As a whole, our sport must better promote itself in order to grow the player and supporter pool. We encourage every team to proudly and consistently advertise itself to us and the general public. The more information available, the more our game will grow. Soccer is a game historically left behind to linger in the background in the United States. That circumstance is changing, but that change will not happen automatically. Growing and covering all aspects of our sport will take effort from all of those who love it.

Disclaimer – To prepare for these articles, a questionnaire was sent to every school’s head coach and athletic director. Many of these questionnaires were returned in a timely fashion, others were not. Nebraska Soccer Talk prides itself on equal and in-depth coverage, but cooperation is needed to meet that goal. Please consider this to be our reasoning when it comes to article length and accuracy.

NEST Analysis – York will be looking to reintroduce itself to the state during the 2021 season. After a disappointing 2019 season, a return to competitive play will be the goal. Looking at the roster, the necessary components are there as depth and experience are in place. It will be interesting to see which returning player can take hold of a play-making and/or leadership role. Those will be important developments to follow for Coach Mattox’s team.

NEST Analysis – Returning to their 2018 form will be the objective in the upcoming season for this program. Coach Joel Fritz will surely have his team motivated and prepared to make a run in 2021. Coach Fritz is a well-known commodity within soccer circles. He is a major asset for Waverly High School. During this season, the highlight of the Waverly squad will be Leah Rasmussen. Rasmussen has our attention, demonstrated by her presence on the Pre-Season Players To Watch List. Overall, Waverly looks to be highly competitive in Class B. Early season results will be very telling and this team could quickly rise through our rankings.

This is the team that many youngsters in the area are inspired by. It is the main source of player and coach development. That is a hefty but awesome responsibility for Coach Larson and his players. Focusing on the 2021 team, Emma Foote will be the most intriguing varsity contributor. Her leadership on and off the field will be critical to getting Scottsbluff back on the winning path.

NEST Analysis – An example of consistency and competitiveness, Roncalli Catholic will continue to build upon an already solid foundation. This is a well coached squad that has always made the most of its player pool. However, 2021 could be a season that stands above the rest for the Crimson Pride. Those sky high expectations can be contributed to having one of the top players in the state wearing your kit. Abbey Schwarz will be a nightmare match up for opposing teams as she takes on her leadership role. At the next level, Schwarz is a key part of what looks to be a special Nebraska recruiting class. Omaha Roncalli will begin the season ranked #3 in Class B.
