We are talking about the best players in EKY not overall in the state of KY. With that said all players who have been mentioned are probley above the average player in EKY. However, take the majority of these kids to play on a Lex. Club team and they would struggle. Here are the facts about EKY soccer.
1. The training is terrible, most kids in this area do not work on in step volleys, thigh volleys, or chest volleys in practice which honestly helps TREMENDOUSLY.

2. EKY soccer is based off of this play long ball the entire game. Untill EKY teams have coaches who stress possesion drills our success against teams such as Corbin will not improve.

3. We need to get coaches into the programs who are actually qualified rather then parents, or people who have watched rec. league soccer and think they can do the job, we need coaches who have played at least in college a year or two.

4. It all begins with the youth leagues and works its way up. The same applies here that applies in (3). Including training the kids like a club team rather then a pick up team.

Untill the following four standards are meet WE WILL NOT WIN A REGIONAL TITLE. The closest team to doing this is Perry and it is because of such players as Zach Hall and Andrew Lunsford as to why they are succesful. Because they have trained the kids over the summer and then the drills they work on there are relayed to their High School training sessions.
