The Jonathan Law boys soccer regular season has come to an outstanding conclusion. 

The team has finished their regular season 14-1-1 as they move into the postseason.  The boys have definitely made their mark on the field as this is one of the best regular season records in Jonathan Law history. 

“The team consistently plays as a whole and it clearly shows in our record,” senior goalkeeper and captain Jaden Wywoda said. 

The boys have had 10 shutouts, and have only let up nine goals in 16 games. They move into states confidently, being placed as the 4th seed in Class M which begins on Tuesday, November 9.

“We want to win it all,” senior captain Aidan King said. 

Due to their very successful season, the soccer team won their division for the first time since 1986 and was the first boys soccer team to ever qualify for the Southern Connecticut Conference tournament in Jonathan Law history.

Unfortunately, the team fell short 2-1 in the first round of SCC tournament to Cheshire on October 30, but they continue to keep their heads high as they have big goals for States. 

“We played really good team soccer this season,” said King. “Everyone did their part, especially the guys coming off the bench.” 

The soccer team does not only have amazing relationships with one another, but great talent on the field as well. Lead scorer Marcus Dostal has a total of 20 goals in 17 games, along with captain Lex Edwards not far behind with 16 goals. 

The boys continue to keep strong bonds with each other and work together through every game. This is one of the many advantages they have. 

Coach Gruber keeps a positive attitude into the state tournament as he is very confident in his team’s skills. They have had a remarkable season so far and are excited to continue it. 

“Everything is out in front of us and we have a chance to go far,” Gruber said. “We put ourselves in a good position because of our regular season record to host home games and we will do our best to win those games.” 

The team consistently puts in hard work to reach their post season goals as they get closer to beginning the state tournament. 

“On and off the field the team has worked as a whole through a tough season,”senior captain Jackson Warters said. “We can not wait for the state tournament to begin.”
