New Iberia Senior High Boys Soccer is in a rebuilding year after our best season ever. We were honored to be ranked #21 by Scott. Unfortunately, we graduated 11 seniors and return only two starters. We also have only 4 returning seniors. Our captain this year is Ben Borland. After 5 games the team is 2-2-1. We won our district game against Barbe 2-1. Goals were scored by Lance David and Marcus Dubois. We played in the Northside Tournament and lost to an awesome Jesuit team 2-0. We hung in there really well and withstood over 20 shots (and had none of our own). Outstanding work by our goalie Jeremy Labiche. We then tied Opelousas Catholic 0-0. We were lucky to get a tie against this good team which outplayed us. We lost to Catholic High of New Iberia 2-1. Catholic is an up and coming team which will probably make the playoffs this year. They have an outstanding player named Dee Charles. We beat Abbeville 4-0 this past Saturday. Lance David had a hat trick. Abbeville played well for a team in only its first year of play. We have been getting great play from our defense that includes Ben Borland, Chico Lopez, Sean Naquin, and Chris Boling. We next play two very tough games against Sulphur and Acadiana. Hopefully we will step up to the high level of play of these two fine teams.
