District 26-5A Girls Soccer All-District Selections

The 2021 State 5A Champion Dripping Springs Lady Tigers soccer team quite naturally dominated the all-district selections by the district coaches. It also means in the weeks ahead there will be more awards at the local, regional and state level. With the youth among the awardees, it is understandable why Coach Bailee Perrine can not wait for the next season to work on a repeat. The 26-1-1 team set records in wins, fewest losses and most shutouts, 24.

Youth on a winning team can only mean there was some very good senior leadership, a quality that has to be there. This was personified in the person of Sr. Sofia Picucci who was named as the Forward of the Year. 25 goals, 16 assists, 66 points. She has been the Lady Tigers leading scorer all four years she has played. She set career records in assists (60) and points (262). She was one goal (101)shy of tying the record and had nine hat tricks.
