NEW BRAUNFELS – The reigning TAPPS Division III state champion John Paul II girls soccer team is rolling through the regular season thanks in large part to the play of junior forward Emilie Rompel, who is closing in on scoring her 100th career goal.

SAN ANTONIO – If you watched any game that the Madison girls soccer team played this season, you likely saw senior Jillian Martinez score a goal......twice. Instead of a proper sendoff to a stellar high school career, Martinez was forced to transition right into training for college. "Going from high school to spring break and then not being able to go back to school to finish the season was tough. Once they canceled the high school season, I immediately switched to college and getting ready for UCLA.”Luckily, Martinez has been able to establish an effective daily routine despite restrictions placed on facilities and personnel. It’s markedly different -- and more intense -- than her high school training.
