ON THE CUSP WILLIS GIRLS SOCCER NEARING THE POINT OF ENTERING THE DISTRICT CONVERSATION

Chelsea Mentado-Perez

Milena Munaretto

UNDER SECOND-YEAR HEAD COACH SEAN DAY, WILLIS REMAINED IN THE PLAYOFF HUNT DESPITE COMPETING IN ONE OF HOUSTON’S TOUGHEST DISTRICTS. THOUGH THE WILDKATS NARROWLY MISSED THE POSTSEASON, THEY SHOWCASED GRIT AND RESILIENCE THROUGHOUT 2025. THE IMMINENT GRADUATION OF KEY PLAYERS LIKE SUMMER CLARK (SR. MF/F), CHELSEA MENTADO-PEREZ (SR. MF), AND SAYDIGRACE WOODS (SR. MF) WILL LEAVE SIGNIFICANT GAPS TO FILL NEXT YEAR. HOWEVER, THE EMERGENCE OF YOUNG TALENT—SUCH AS MILENA MUNARETTO (SO. GK) AND NATHALIE CORTES (FR. RW/D)—OFFERS HOPE FOR A PROGRAM THAT CONTINUES TO INCH CLOSER TO A POSTSEASON BREAKTHROUGH.
