2026 Middle School Soccer Season Recap
2026 marks my third year of coaching co-ed middle school soccer, assisted by Mr. Hermanson. Overall, I could not be prouder of this year's team. We had a diverse group of players this year, ending the season with 9 eighth graders, 3 seventh graders, 4 sixth graders, and 3 fifth graders! Every player showed up to practice each afternoon ready to sharpen their skills and share a love of the game. We were blessed to have a strong team this year, with most of our players returning from last season. What made this year special was our more experienced athletes' willingness to help coach younger players to fill positions in next year’s lineup.
I would like to shout out a handful of players: Wyatt Biehn and AJ Martinez (strikers/ forwards), Angel Hernandez (midfield), and Luke Hoskins (defense). These eighth-grade boys led plays during games and also took time to share tips and tricks with the younger players. We also had a strong defensive line of 8th-grade girls who protected our goal throughout the season. Also, Davian Hardy was our primary goalie this season and played a crucial role in securing wins.
I would also like to affirm the motivation and eagerness of our fifth through seventh graders to step up in games and support their team on the field. I am so excited to watch these players grow and step into leadership positions on the team in upcoming seasons.
We went into our final tournament with an 8-1 record! This shows the level of dedication and teamwork that is shared among our athletes. In our final tournament, we ended up taking second place overall after a neck-and-neck game versus Grand Canyon, ending with a final score of 2-1, with a penalty kick scored by Luke Hoskins.
I would like to extend a thank you to all the families who showed up each weekend to support our Spartans. It meant a lot to me and our players to have you there cheering from the sidelines, supporting us with each goal, run, and block.
Looking forward to next season, please have physicals and FinalForms completed before the first week of school if your students would like to play soccer in the 2027 season. Physicals completed after March 1st 2027 are valid for the 2027-2028 school year. We gladly welcome all those who have a love for the game and would like to represent the Spartans on the field.

As we approach the beginning of the school year, we want to take a moment to share some important information regarding your child’s transition from 5th grade to 6th grade. This is an exciting time, and we are here to support you and your student through this change.
We invite you to join us in Ms. Acosta’s classroom #115 before the open house on July 30, 2026, from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Here, you will discover essential details that will help your child adapt to middle school life.
You will have the chance to meet our dedicated middle school teachers, who are eager to connect with you and your student. We will provide important login information for educational platforms such as IXL and Google Classroom, ensuring your child is prepared for their studies.
Additionally, we will assist you with installing the Team Reach app, which facilitates effective communication between parents and teachers. Lastly, we will share information about the exciting team-building activities that our middle school students participate in, fostering a sense of community and collaboration.
We look forward to working together to ensure a smooth and successful transition for your child into 6th grade. Thank you for your ongoing support!
Best regards,
Ash Fork Middle School
