Gallery: Boys Soccer Tryouts

Boys soccer tryouts took place Aug. 18–21. On the first day, athletes were divided into two groups: freshmen and sophomores who played on the blue or black team the previous year, and returning junior varsity, or varsity players. The first and second days were split, with one group trying out in the main gym on the first day and the upper turf field on the second day. The second group practiced both days from 7–8:45 p.m. at the Shawnee Mission Soccer Complex, ending with full scrimmages. On the third day, both groups trained together at SM East, showcasing juggling skills, shuttle runs, 40-yard dashes and 10 vs. 10 scrimmages. The final day featured three 11 vs. 11 games among three teams, shortened due to Back-to-School Night at 6:30 p.m., which required coaches Jamie Kelly and Adam Cumley to return to their classrooms.
