The Vikings will begin their season with a match against Carthage on Tuesday, September 1st. Last season Parkview went 1-1 against Carthage, winning in the PHS Tournament, but losing at JFK on senior night. Both teams graduated key members of their respective squads from last year, and will look to get off on the right foot with their new look lineups.
The match will take place at Carthage, with a JV kickoff time of 5:00pm, and a Varsity start of approximately 6:30pm.
Parkview returns only three regular starters from last year’s squad, following an 18-8 season full of record breaking a milestones. Seniors Dane Knapp (sweeper), Jared Moore (midfielder), and Jon Malter (keeper) are the only returning regular starters, but there is a touch more experience on this year’s roster than that might indicate.
Sam Vigil (senior) played regularly in the back for Vikings last year, and new addition Michael Duff (senior) took a year off but should also be varsity ready as well. Jordan Houseman (junior) also filled in a fair amount in the midfield comes in this year looking to start. Blake White (junior), Tanner Bennett (junior), Travis Dillard (senior) and Shane Maloney (sophomore) all got some time at the varsity level and sure won’t be lost out there this year. Not to be forgotten is last year’s JV scoring leader Brian Otradovec (sophomore), as well as key JV players from last year Alex Blanco (junior) and Jim Smart (junior).
The Viking may have lost a lot of seniors last year, as every team does, but this year’s squad is looking to continue the Vikings winning ways in 2009.
