The Kansas High School Soccer Coaches Association has announced its All-State teams and players and coaches of the year for each of the three girls’ classifications.
First-time state champions Washburn Rural (6A) and Bishop Carroll (5A) were well represented, with each having six players named to the all-state team. Rural senior Kate Hinck was selected as the 6A forward of the year and her teammate, senior Madison Lemke, was chosen as 6A goalkeeper of the year. The 6A coach of the year award went to Brian Hensyel after he led the Junior Blues to a 19-2 record.
Other 6A honors went to Blue Valley North freshman Evie Kincaid (midfielder of the year) and Mill Valley senior Lauren Welch (defender of the year).
In Class 5A, Bishop Carroll’s Greg Rauch was voted coach of the year after leading the Golden Eagles to a 21-0 record, the first Kansas girls team to accomplish that since Olathe East won the 6A title in 2012. De Soto, fourth at state, had a pair of 5A individual honorees in freshman Colbie Warne, the forward of the year, and senior Sydney Coffman, the midfielder of the year.
State runner-up St. James Academy also received two 5A individual honors. Junior Kambree Duker was voted defender of the year and junior Emma Smith was chosen as the top goalkeeper.
Bishop Miege also had six players named to the all-state team after winning its ninth consecutive Class 4-1A championship. Seniors Naomi Harris and Rowan Epps were chosen as forward of the year and defender of the year, respectively, with Epps sharing the defender honor with Rose Hill senior Nevaeh Kelly.
Another Rose Hill senior, Paige Winter, earned 4-1A midfielder of the year honors for the Rockets, who finished third at state. McPherson freshman Ellie Herrera was voted as 4-1A’s top goalkeeper, and Hayden’s Klaus Kreutzer was selected 4-1A coach of the year after leading the Wildcats to the state championship match.
