With a few league games to go, La Jolla Country Day (LJCD) School soccer teams look to position themselves for the upcoming CIFs.
On the girls side, head coach Dave Jenkins and the Lady Torreys are faced with a rebuilding year after losing 10 starting seniors to graduation.
LJCD entered action this week at 0-4-1 in Coastal League, with losses to Bishops (2), Parker and a tie with Canyon Crest. Last week, the Lady Torreys lost to both Horizon and Parker (4-0, 6-0 respectively).
Jenkins noted the efforts to date of senior captains Lorin Jenkins and Kate Hummel returning for their fourth season on varsity.
Other returning starters seeing playing time are juniors Allison Dorr, Cody Saleh and Jessica Hershfield, along with sophomore Sierra Ferreira.
On the boys side, the Torreys split a pair of games over the last week.
In a 4-1 win over Horizon, Tim Sedwitz contributed two assists and became the team’s all-time leading scorer with 149 points (55 goals, 39 assists). Zach Wolfenzen scored two goals (he now has 13 on the season), along with Taylor Sarkaria and Jake Eliasberg. Sarkaria also earned an assist, as did Mason Boxer-Capitano.
“It was a great game for the entire team, especially as far as the crisp passing was concerned,” LJCD head coach Jerry Fleischhacker said. “Individually, praise goes especially to Sedwitz, Wolfenzen, Boxer-Capitano, Darren Blake, Chris Birks, Alex Fleischhacker and goalkeeper Bobby Whitney.”
On other action, LJCD dropped a 3-1 decision to Francis Parker.
Wolfenzen scored his 14th goal of the season on a setup by Colin Young. Blake and Steven Migdal played strong games on defense, while Sedwitz and Alex Fleischhacker did a good job in midfield.
