Comments on: Boys soccer preseason top 10 http://ocvarsity.freedomblogging.com/2008/12/01/boys-soccer-preseason-top-10/18546/ High school sports talk by the staff of the Orange County Register Fri, 14 Oct 2011 19:48:20 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Bud http://ocvarsity.freedomblogging.com/2008/12/01/boys-soccer-preseason-top-10/18546/#comment-15748 Bud Mon, 08 Dec 2008 23:19:45 +0000 http://ocvarsity.freedomblogging.com/?p=18546#comment-15748 Looks like Aliso Niguel (and J Serra) should be in the top 10 as well as they are in the finals of the Aliso Cup. Los Alamitos and Esperanza didn't make it out of pool play and Servite lost in the semis along with Dana Hills. And J Serra is the big surprise as they are in the finals as well after beating Servite 3-0. It is early in the season but good starts for both Aliso and J Serra.

Santa Ana Valley was left out of the original post as the No. 10 team. And glad to see the interest in boys soccer is already starting. We're planning to do a lot more coverage of boys soccer on a regular basis this season, and we hope to get a lot of interaction going with the passionate fans in O.C.

They have quite a bit of talent. We will see if they can win their league again and do something in CIF. I have my doubts I'm curious to know if Servite boosters pay for the pub on the register? Every year there is massive hype and every year they choke. I know, this year will be very different. Right? Wrong!!!! Esperanza has nothing, just a lot of big physical kids that sometimes translates into wins in high school soccer. Ranked 3? Not a chance! Have not seen much of El Toro so I can't give much insight on their ranking. Let you all know when I catch a game. La Habra? Whose gonne score goals? their scoring machine is gone. Unless they have some kids step up or their midfield guy score all the goals I doubt they will repeat. Saddleback should be higher returning a ton of guys on their roster. SM and Mater Dei? Big question mark with coaches gone and most of their top players playing academy. Los Al? Their main guys are all in college. Lets see how things play out in preseason. Good luck to all and look for Johnson to provide insight in the absence of our loved Miguel Melendez. Any idea where he has gone? Fountain Valley should be solid! They have quite a bit of talent.
