I mean, we still have things to work on, but we’re getting there,” said Schwartz. Boys’ Soccer The Westview boys’ soccer team is ready to start another season under the direction of Coach Dennis Berkey. Westview played their first game against Wawasee High School on August 16th and won 5-0. Senior, Dom Hunter led the way, scoring three goals to complete the hat trick. The other two goals were scored by juniors Parker Fought and Austin Borg. Adrian Brandenberger saved everything that came his way as he held the Wawasee Warriors scoreless. The Warrior players know that the season is a long road but many feel like they can have a very good year. Senior Travis Dowdy is one of these players. He feels that the squad needs to “play together as a team and focus on what needs to be done. The senior leadership is going to be responsible for much of the Warriors success.” Dowdy said that as a senior he will try to make sure he is “always making the most out of practices.” He also said that he wants to set a “good example for the underclassmen.” Dowdy believes that setting a good example for the underclassmen will help the team tremendously. “I think all of the underclassmen have the ability to help the team greatly.” The leadership shown by Coach Berkey has been a positive cornerstone for the Warrior soccer program for many years now. Dowdy said the best thing about playing for Coach Berkey is that “he enjoys having fun as well as making sure we get everything done that we need to during practices.” The Warriors have a solid team lined up as they are led by seniors Dom Hunter, Jared Berkey, Travis Dowdy, Adrian Brandenberger, Conrad Frey, Tristan Good, and Zac Stoltzfus. However, there are a couple concerns for the team. There have been some injuries on the defensive side that has hurt them. The team is also being plagued by a lack of substitutes. On the other side of the ball, their offense has more than enough speed to “burn” their opponents. They also have plenty of experience to go around. The Warriors have a tough schedule ahead of them as they only have three home games all season long. However, it doesn’t seem to be bothering the team. If anything, they’re excited to be challenged. One of the “big games” this season will be against Northridge. Others will include Bethany High School and the tournament at Carrol High School.
