Senior Gabriel Favela is one of only three returners for the Indians.
In order for us to compete for a playoff spot we have to improve defensively, he said. And we have to find ways to get goals. The Indians find themselves in a tougher district than they did during their run of playoff appearances with the additions of Stephenville and Kennedale. Playing in this district helps prepare you for the speed of play and the overall pace well see in the playoffs, Stephens said. This is the last year Alvarado will be in a district with the likes of Cleburne, Joshua and Granbury, but Stephens does not believe things will be easier just because of a new classification. Our goals will remain the same to improve and compete for district and state championships, he said. We have to be good regardless of size. Weve been very competitive in 4A in the past and well have to get to that level again to compete at the level we want, regardless of classification. Tommy Brown
entire high school careers. Newcomers for the Lady Indians will include Sydney Summers and Jessica Cornejo. Summers has a chance to be a playmaker as a freshman after scoring all four goals in a scrimmage win over Dallas Spruce. Cornejo will be most valuable to the Lady Indians midfield with her ball control skills, but ODonnell believes she has the ability to develop into a forward as well. This will be the last year Alvarado plays in a district with the likes of Cleburne, Joshua and Granbury as beginning in 2015 there will be three classifications for soccer instead of two. I wish we could play in a more even district as far as the number of 3A teams but this will only prepare us for when we do play in a 3A district next year, ODonnell said. With that being said, I believe we will continue to improve on our win total this season and I do think we could surprise a couple teams by the time district comes along. Tommy Brown
Keely Crowder is one of several key returning players for the Lady Indians.
David Carrizal, Ad Desai, Tyler Erickson, Austin Linehan and Zach Payne. The strength should be in our defense, Cross said. Although our goal keepers will be rookies. Carrizal is the only three-year letterman, one of our captains and he will be the leader of our defense. Cross added that Erickson and Dasai are fellow captains along with Carrizal, and that Erickson will be solid alongside Carrizal in the back while Dasai will solidify the Elks middle. Our team is still young and rebuilding from the past two years, but I think we will start closing the gap and should have some success in our tough district this year, Cross said. As always, one of our team goals is to make the playoffs, and I think we will have a chance this year. A.J. Crisp
Burlesons David Carrizal is the Elks only three-year letterman and one of three team captains. Coach Jeff Cross said Carrizal will lead the defensive attack.
