Our Lady Admirals Soccer competes in the AHSAA at the1A- 3A classification with athletes in the 7th through 11th grade. We strive to cultivate and encourage our players to be the best ladies on and off the field. Each Lady Admiral continually grows individually through her effort, skill, and hard work, so that when we come together as a team, we are the strongest single unit we can be. From our youngest ladies in middle school to our older players in JV and varsity, we foster the development of our players technically, tactically, and psychologically. 

Our goals are to work together, work hard, and enjoy the game of soccer through individual dedication and commitment that unifies us as one team.
