CLASS 2 DISTRICT 11 and 12 BRING IN TWO NEW PROGRAMS

Pleasant Hill and Republic will bring two fledgling soccer programs to District 11 and 12 competition this year. While soccer may be new to the school, many players have years of competitive soccer experience and the coaching, likewise will be top notch. Check out this story and video interview with Mike Hines, Republic's new coach from Ole's Springfield Soccer website last year.

Pleasant Hill acquired Al Iantorno, a recent premier soccer coach with the KC Select Soccer Club. His soccer credentials include a USSF National “B” License and NSCAA Advance National Diploma, Head Women’s Soccer Coach at the University of Missouri-Rolla (August 2004-March 2005), Head Women’s Soccer Coach at the University of Central Missouri (1995-2003)
Head Women’s Soccer Coach at Ferrum College (1989-1991), Collegiate and amateur playing experience.

These teams will be well coached and tough right out of the gate.

Update: Republic loses first home opener but not by much.
