Soccer Starts Monday 9/26/2011

2011-09-22T10:30:00.002-04:00

We are looking forward to the start of the season.

If you plan to try out, your forms are due this Friday September 23, 2011. If you have not had a physical for another sport you must get a physical before you will be allowed to try out (NO EXCEPTIONS).

Try outs will start at 2:45 and end at 4:15 sharp. We hope to have a team picked by Wednesday, September 28. Parents, we ask that you do not come down to the fields or engage us in discussions during try-outs, we want to judge each player on his or her own merits and choose the players that best fit within our team philosophy.

Good Luck to all those trying out.

Soccer Meeting

2011-09-01T12:20:00.002-04:00

There was a meeting this morning for all girls interested in trying out for soccer this year. We discussed the need to have a physical (if you haven't already had one for a sport this year), Being respectful to all players trying out and the importance of being in shape when try-outs start. It was also stated that we are looking for the 16 best players and that being on the team last year is NOT a guarantee that you will be on the team this year.

Coach Lockrow and I would also appreciate it if parents would stay in the parking lot during try-outs and let us evaluate the players on their own merit. This is my twentieth year as a soccer coach in Hamilton County and Ms. Lockrow's 7th year, we have a system for evaluating players and we will do our best to choose the 16 best players for our system of play.

Soccer ability is 90% of the equation, but character and grades will also play a role in our selection.

GOOD LUCK to everyone trying out this year.

Soccer Meeting

2011-08-25T11:42:00.000-04:00

If you have any questions email me at SEILER_JAMES@hcde.org

2009-11-12T21:10:00.001-05:00

On Thursday, November 12, at Signal Mountain Middle, The Loftis Girls played a tough game against an excellent Signal Mountain team. Jessica Lyons scored the first goal of the night for the Cougars. (Great Shot Jess!) Casey Helmick, who played well all evening (including a great save in our goal), scored the second goal for the Cougars with an incredible outside shot that sailed over the goalie's head. (WOW!) Sterlling Tindell provided excellent defense as always and Miranda Smith, Hayley Wyatt and Cameron Hinch worked hard all evening. Sarah Elliott had a fantastic second half in the goal making numerous stops. (Great Game Sarah) The game ended in a 2-2 tie, but it was a great team effort and Coach Lockrow and Coach Seiler are very proud of ALL the girls. Great Game gals!

Directions to Signal Mountain

2009-11-12T11:07:00.000-05:00

Directions / Markers

Drive up the Mountain on Highway 127 and just before you get to the traffic light (CVS on the right), you turn left onto Signal Mtn. Boulevard. You will travel uphill and the name of the road will change to Maryland Avenue and James Boulevard. At 4/10 of a mile, turn left onto Timberlinks Avenue. It is where 5 roads come together. Take Timberlinks (which will eventually become Shackleford Ridge Road) for 3 miles until you come to Nolan Elementary on the left and Dogwood Grove (Subdivision) on the right. Turn left onto Sam Powell Trail. The school is half a mile back on the right. We will play on the High School Football field. It is the only field with lights.

Loftis Girls Beat Brown 11-1

2009-10-30T15:35:00.001-04:00

Yesterday the Loftis Lady Cougar Soccer Team beat Brown Middle 11-1. Miranda Smith led the team in scoring for the third time this season and we have only played three games. Miranda scored 5 goals for the Cougars (giving her a total of 13 goals in 3 games). Hayley Wyatt added two goals, one an amazing shot from about 25 yards out that curved over the goalie's head. Jessica Lyons scored two goals and had several assists. Leslie Lewis scored her first goal of the season, on her birthday. Casey Helmick played a short time in the second half, but it was enough for her to score the final goal of the evening and her first goal of the season. This was Casey's first game this season having been forced to watch from the sidelines because of an injury. Hopefully Casey will be ready to start on Tuesday against East Ridge.
         Sterlling Tindall proved once again to be the heart of our defense. She continues to frustrate teams with her tough defensive play. More than once she took the ball and dribbled it forward herself surprising the other team, who no doubt expected her to just give it a kick. Sterlling is incredibly versatile and does so much to make us a better team.
         Also playing well were defenders Cameron Hinch, who's agressive play has made it difficult for opposing teams to even cross the mid line, Emily Hutcheson, who gives 110% for all 60 minutes and Megan Adkins and Katelyn Fowler, who have been sharing duty at the left defender position, played hard too.
         Great job to our Midfielders who always work hard, but never get any of the glory. Jennica Sanders, Sydney Page, Samantha Brannon, Chloe Nance Great Job!
         The teams next game is Tuesday against East Ridge at Camp Jordan.
