Katlin Stephens, a senior at Athens Academy, suffered a number of injuries throughout the season, but her competitive drive kept her going ending the season with outstanding stats.

Simerjit Kaur, a fourth grade soccer star, has the incredible talent of being a dominant force both on offense and defense on the field.
Having a player that is dependable on both ends of the field is hard to come by. Simerjit Kaur (Simmy), a fourth grader at High Shoals Elementary, has the enviable ability to be a reliable force on both sides of the soccer field. In a recent game, Kaur assisted on two goals in the first half and played defense the second half without allowing the other team a shot on goal, according to coach Penn Hurst.
