Lady
Buster Soccer Signs “Dynamic Duo”
In
a move that immediately improves the 2006 Lady Buster squad, Head
Women's Soccer Coach Jeff Huffman is pleased to announce the signings
of Leavenworth (KS) High School Pioneer products Aggie Kozak and
Amalee Dykes. Coach Huffman saw these two ladies in competition
at the Heartland Soccer Association Tournament in November.
Both
student athletes are four year varsity players for Leavenworth High
School . They have a vast array of club soccer experience, playing
as teammates at mostly the same club's since the U-10 age level.
Kozak
plays in the backline at the high school level yet played forward
for her club team-Leavenworth United Thunder-during the Fall of
2005, where she led the team in goals scored. The forward position
is where Coach Huffman in vision's her playing as a Lady Buster.
Kozak played club soccer at the U-10 and U-11 age level for Azzurri.
She played competitively for the Twisters Soccer Club at the U-12
thru U-15 age level, while playing for one season at the U-16 age
level for the KC Nomads. She has played the last two seasons at
the U-17 and U-18 age levels respectively for the Leavenworth United
Thunder. Kozak also brings three years of ODP experience to the
table, making the Kansas ODP State Pool during 2000 and 2001, while
making the Kansas State ODP team in 2002.
Coach
Huffman states, “Aggie has the ability to lead our team in goals
scored like she did for her club team this past fall. Her experience
at the club and ODP levels can only help the team and will further
along the growth of the program. Aggie's personality is one that
is infectious, as she has a positive attitude and unique outlook
on many things.”
Dykes
plays in the center of the backline at the high school level. She
played club soccer for Azzurri at the U-11 age level. From U-12
thru U-15 she played competitively for the Twisters Soccer Club,
while playing one season for the KC Nomads. Dykes-along with Kozak-has
played the last two seasons at the U-17 and U-18 age levels respectively
for the Leavenworth United Thunder.
Coach
Huffman comments, “One of my recruiting needs was finding a competent
center back. Aggie brings to this position the speed and athleticism
it takes to be successful in the Jayhawk Conference. Amalee also
carries a stellar 4.2 GPA and is looking to be part of the “honors
program” here at GCCC. There is nothing but positives all around
with Amalee's signing.”
