The girls understand that this undefeated record so far can come to an end at any point in the season which is what makes them push themselves to beat any team that gets in their way. The team doesn't let other opponents psych them out but instead takes it in as white noise.
With a 5-0 record, the Trojans have set a high standard for the rest of the season.
As they continue to face new challenges and strive for further success, one thing is clear: the Trojans are a force to be reckoned with.
As the season progresses, the team's focus is to maintain their streak while also enjoying the journey that comes with being a top-performing team at Blind Brook.
For now, the girls’ varsity soccer team is celebrating their success but knows they are not done. After an away game against Valhalla after press time Wednesday, Sept. 18, the Trojans will face Briarcliff at home on Friday, Sept. 20 followed by an away game against Rye Neck on Tuesday, Sept. 24 and a home contest against Pleasantville on Thursday, Sept. 26.
