Congrats to Kellen! Our family is thrilled to have a coach invested in the SLVHS Girls Soccer Program and in our community. Please support your local SLV athletes year-round, we are the only school left in the county that doesn't "Pay to Play".
Kellen's been "invested" in local soccer from a very early age, loves the game, still plays and is a player's coach. Should be fun. And Lynn, isn't it wonderful how this community supports all of our student athletes and artists!
