DSHS sophomore named TGCA Girls’ Soccer Athlete of the Year
Dripping Springs High School girls’ soccer player Caroline Dill has been named the Girls’ Soccer Athlete of the Year by the Texas Girls Coaches Association (TGCA).
The sophomore goalkeeper helped lead the Lady Tigers to their first state championship with a 2-1 win over Frisco Wakeland High School in the UIL Conference 5A title game on April 16.
Dill allowed just one goal in district play as DSHS rolled to a 15-0-1 record, outscoring district opponents 52-3. Dill also allowed just one score in the playoffs with the lone goal coming in the state title match. In the state championship, Dill made five saves to earn Tournament MVP honors.
Dill joined Texas Lutheran University signee Charleigh Phipps and the DSHS back line in allowing just eight goals on the season. The Lady Tigers posted 24 shutouts on the season en route to setting a school record for wins with a 27-1-1 overall record.
