The Saranac Lake girls soccer team had one of its best seasons in recent years. The Red Storm finished the season at 4-8-3, and the team found itself in close contests in almost every league game.

Although the Red Storm were unable to walk away with a sectional pennant, four players were honored for their outstanding campaigns. The Lake Placid girls soccer team had one star.

Saranac Lake’s Tyler Borth led the way by being named first-team All-Northern Football League selection. Emma Ackie, Samra Siricovich and Ayla Small were named to the second team. The Blue Bombers’ Anisa Cecunjanin was a first-team selection.

Perth, a sophomore, returns to the NSL DII first team for the second year in a row. This season she scored three goals and provided four assists as a midfielder for the team.

Red Storm coach Jason Wammjans described Perth as a very smart, intelligent and skillful player.

“She understands where to distribute the ball, where and how to position herself to try to extend possession and how to lure and defend the opposition.” He said. “She has a relentless, relentless drive to win the ball. She has amazing habits both in and out of season, which has been the reason for her success.”

Cericovich finished her final college season leading the team in goals with nine goals while recording five assists. Cericovich was one of the team’s best forwards last year, and Vamsganz said she has already achieved her goal.

“She worked extremely hard in the holiday period and bought into her public role.” He said. “The tan is very unselfish and will often look to pass first. Her physical strength helps her create separation and gives her the ability to play with her back to goal. She has a great touch on the ball and can also shoot the ball past someone with her sheer strength. Her ability to work a defender with the ball and draw Other defenders to her and then passing the ball to a teammate or space really allowed her to be one of the most dangerous attacking players in the division.

Wamsganz described Small as a team “A horse used on farms,” Who can do a little bit of everything for the team. She had four assists playing outside linebacker last season.

“She can play forward or defend. She was recognized for her defensive skills and playing. He said. “She is a smart player on the ball and always seems to be in a defensive position to make the play. Ayla smoothly handles the ball and moves it forward in an attacking style. She can always find an open player and if not, she doesn’t panic, she just buys herself.” Time on the ball until someone opens up. Ayla took 90% of the free kicks and corner kicks. She did a great job bringing the ball down where we needed it.

Aki, a sophomore goalkeeper, proved to be a difference-maker against Saranac Lake. She recorded 164 saves while posting a 1.15 goals against average in games against Division II opponents.

“Emma is extremely athletic, her instincts as a goalkeeper are off the chart and she brings a competitiveness to the position.” Wamjans said. “She made a lot of great saves, which helped us stay in some games. She’s very aggressive and fully committed when she decides to get the ball. She’s the type of player who sacrifices her body and is fearless. She’s been consistent all season and really bought into the game of soccer and her team and her position.” Goalkeeper this season.

While the Blue Bomber girls didn’t have the best season in terms of records, Sikonjanen was a bright spot for her team. She returns to the league’s All-Star team for the second straight season. Lake Placid also won the Ray Holmes Sportsmanship Award.

Wamsganz was named Co-Coach of the Year. Christina Slattery of Moorea shared the honor with Wamsganz.

“The Coach of the Year award is really an award that represents the team or an extension of it.” He said. “I’m honored and humbled to receive this, but it’s the girls who really deserve this recognition. I’ve been doing this long enough to understand that we as coaches fulfill our responsibilities but it’s our players who put all the coaching pieces, team concepts, selflessness, in-game adjustments together and all the other internal and external things aside. To improve the team.”
