Girls Varsity Soccer Coach: Megan Rutherford

What plans do you have for the rest of the season and even in the offseason? For the team? You know, the rest of the season, definitely.

the goal is just to keep progressing, to keep improving.

They got a little taste of, you know, a massive league win.

I think that was their first league win in a couple of years.

And to get a little taste of that, you know, I'm excited to see how they go from there, you know, how that competitive fire continues to build the pride in their school and their program.

And, um, Moving forward the rest of the season, I want them to keep growing, to keep pushing, to see how far they can go just in one season, you know, maximize this opportunity while we have time together.

Because the seasons, I mean, it's winding down, you know, we've only got a few weeks left till tournament time.

So it goes quicker than you think.

For offseason, obviously, I love multi-sport athletes.

I encourage them to play other sports.

In the winter, basketball is a great sport.

There's a lot of carryover between that and soccer.

Track, there's a lot of carryover.

Obviously, softball, being able to be explosive as an athlete.

So I encourage them to do different things.

But also, we try to continue pushing the weight room, getting in the If they're lifting with their teams that they're playing for, to continue playing the game.

We'll play futsal in the offseason.

We'll get together and kick a ball around and just continue to have fun playing the game.

That's the goal.

Speaking of that, how would you describe the personality and chemistry of the team?

Allison, should I let you answer that? She doesn't want to be put on the spot right now.

That's fine.

You can just put me on the spot.

I mean, the culture and the personality of the team, the chemistry is, I mean, it's just fun.

There's a lot of laughter.
