The Montverde Academy Boys Varsity Soccer Team has been recognized as “The Team to Watch” this winter in the State of Florida according to the latest edition of ESPN Rise Magazine. The Eagles were crowned 2010-11 ESPN Rise/Powerade Fab 50 National Champions after going unbeaten for the first time in school history with an overall record of 26-0-1.
ESPN Rise Magazine listed seniors David Graydon and Joao Ramalho among the top 11 players in the State of Florida for the upcoming season after their All-American accolades at the conclusion of the 2010-11 campaign. According to ESPN, “While the Eagles graduated a ton of talent, arguably their best players return this season.” The Eagles will begin the 2011-12 season in early November as they travel to Melbourne where they will participate in the Melbourne High School Pre-Season Invitational.
“I am looking forward to the soccer season as it is right around the corner,” said Head Coach Mike Potempa. “We did some great things last year, but our focus will now shift to the future as we aim to work harder and play to the best of our ability each day. Once this team reaches match fitness and gains an understanding, I believe we will be competitive once again this year.”
