With a tough schedule ahead, senior Trey Lacy is confident that he and the rest of the Kapaun Mount Carmel soccer team are ready for it.
“Last season was a good season, but we are looking to do better this year. Our chemistry is high this year, and we are in good shape. I’m excited to get rolling this season!” Lacy said.
Lacy, who plays left wing and center attacking midfielder, is hyper-focused on bettering his leadership.
“I want to improve my overall leadership on the field as well as my ability to perform in crucial times of the game,” Lacy said. “It’s one thing to have a good team, but it’s another to have a good program and be a good leader. I’m hoping to be a leader and a big motivator for my team.
The senior is optimistic that the time put in this offseason will set him and his team above the rest.
“Our conditioning has been pretty brutal this summer, but at the end of the day the team knows it’s going to benefit us in the long run and could be the difference between a win or a loss for us,” Lacy said. “I think my fitness will play a good part in that I’ve put a lot of work in this summer making sure I’m in the best shape for this season. The fitness could be the difference, whether I’m running to a through ball in the final minutes or I’m getting back on defense and making a tackle, but it’s things like that that I think will really set me apart from most this year.”
