The Round Up – Class A Girls (4/20/21)

  • Gretna is our new #1, a ranking in which they have absolutely earned. So far they have been dominate versus even the best of competition. This is well-rounded and quality squad that is anchored by a few of the best players in the state.
  • Lincoln Southwest remains undefeated and on the climb during the 2021 season. In all three overtime experiences, the Spartans have come out on top. Wins over Millard West, Omaha Marian, Kearney and Lincoln East demonstrate that this team is for real.
  • North Platte is a new team on the scene thanks in large part to all-star talent, Gracie Haneborg. The Lady Bulldogs have an eight game win streak, including a victory over Class B number one Omaha Skutt. A 2-3 start could have derailed the season, however this team has shown a great deal of resilience and spirit.
  • Recognition is in order for Omaha Central as they continue to put together a very solid season. This program’s journey has been fun to observe from the outside. A big game is upcoming as the Eagles take on Millard North.
  • Besides their first contest of the season, Columbus High has looked like a Top 10 program. However, they are in need of a top tier win to solidified themselves as a true contender.
  • Lincoln East has been without two of their top players in recent weeks. One player was out due to quarantine, the other will not be returning from a knee injury. Even with that adversity, this team continues to fight and win as they march towards Morrison. An upcoming match against North Platte will be huge for both sides.
  • The loss of Allie Napora cannot be overstated for Papillion-La Vista South. With her, the Titans flew out to an 8-0 record in what appeared to be a dream season. Without her, the last three games have gone the other direction. The adjustment will take time, but do not count out the Titans. There is a ton of young talent still occupying the roster.
  • A 7-4 record is obviously respectable for any program at this point in the season. In Kearney’s case though, it is important to examine even deeper. All four loses have come against quality sides and by one goal a piece. This team is close and could be a problem for the opposition during the coming weeks.
