The Cy Ranch girls soccer team demonstrates athleticism, teamwork and dedication in high school sports. Representing the school, the team has established itself as a strong competitive force within the region and beyond. Their success on and off the field reflects not only in their skills but also their values and passion. They represent resilience, unity and commitment.
The team builds itself on its leadership. From experienced coaches who work best to emphasize discipline and good gameplay to support a community, the team is set up to succeed. Emphasizing technical skills, mental toughness and physical fitness, the coaches encourage players to succeed academically and beyond the field.
“Every time I am down or upset I relieve myself playing in the field,” freshman Sophie Manrique-Dubon said.
The program also benefits from precise training plans where practice combines drills, sessions and practice to prepare players for the field. Off the field, the team engages in bonding activities, ensuring that players work together during games.
The team has built a reputation for success in district and regional competitions. They have earned recognition for their strong performances against some of the top teams in Texas. Their technique is characterized by a balanced defensive organization, making them a strong opponent on the field. Individual players from the team frequently earn awards including all-district and all-region honors.
“Soccer is a game that requires you to work hard no matter what and to keep it pushing,” junior Luz Rengifo Riesta, defender and center back, said.
This sense of unity extends beyond the field. The team actively partakes in demonstrating their commitment to making a positive impact. No team achieves success without adversity. Injuries, losses and fierceness are a part of the journey. However, resilience ensures these challenges become opportunities for growth and motivation.
“I see my team as a family,” sophomore Presley Frank said.
The soccer team strives to be like a family that values hard work and excellence, team members said. As they continue to measure their success, not only are they defined by victories, but they are also defined by bonds made along the way.
