Senior goalkeeper Amber Roberts recorded her first shutout of the season in a victory over Lakeside for the girls soccer team last week. She has played goal for nine years, since her early days in youth soccer.
"I was one of the tallest girls," Roberts said with a smile about her selection as a goalkeeper early in her career. "They just looked at me and said, 'You're in the box.' I quickly learned not to be afraid of the ball."
Roberts said she has been scouted by the coaches at Mt. San Jacinto College and also is considering Crafton Hills College in northern California. She plans to major in animal science.
Sophomore Raul Gutierrez has done an admirable job filling in for injured seniors on the boys soccer team. He has shown tremendous potential at midfielder for the Patriots, who are still looking for their first Sunbelt League win.
"We've never been to the playoffs, so that's a goal for us," Gutierrez said. "The players are good communicators and we pass the ball around pretty well."
Senior point guard Adriana Nevarez has spent four years on the girls basketball team, which has a goal of advancing further than last year's first-round loss in the CIF playoffs. The Patriots have never gotten out of the first round in that sport.
"My role is to make sure everything is in place," said Nevarez, a team captain, who leads the team with an average of six assists per game.
