Looking to continue her soccer career at the next level, senior Geneieve LaMarche has been putting the work in over the offseason in hopes to help lead Maize South to a state title this year after finishing short last year earning fourth place in 5A.
Last year LaMarche finished the season with 33 goals as well as nine assists. She is the fourth all- time leading goal scorer for a single season at Maize South.
LaMarche also received high praise from Mavericks’ head coach Rey Ramirez for her work ethic and love for the game of soccer.
“Geni is truly a special and unique athlete. She is the type of player that stands out even amongst the top players in our region. She has a contagious personality and has an extremely unique drive to compete.
Her dedication and commitment to improve is truly second to none. I absolutely love to see the humility with which she approaches not just the game, but her training,” Ramirez said.
On the field LaMarche does it all offensively playing the seven, 11 and nine as well as some midfield. This versatility is what helped her earn first team all-league honors.
For the Mavericks, other than scoring, LaMarche‘s role on this team is to be a constant motivator on the team and to help everyone succeed.
“Whether they didn’t perform well or they are hard on themselves. I’m someone who lifts that person up with confidence knowing they can do it” LaMarche said. “I hope to make everyday count, spend time with the girls and to motivate my teammates.”
