The Valley Forge High School Patriots, under the guidance of Head Coach Harrison Dehlinger, are gearing up for an ambitious new soccer season. With Dehlinger entering his sixth season in a varsity role and eighth overall, expectations are high thanks to the experienced lineup featuring key returners such as Yousaf Sadiq and Yousuf Noori.

The Patriots concluded the previous season with a record of 4-11-3, but with seven returning starters including senior defenders Noah Stack and Tommy Rollins, the team is optimistically poised for improvement. Coach Dehlinger, who boasts a career record of 32 varsity wins, expressed confidence in the squad's capabilities, noting the blend of youth and experience as a potential catalyst for achieving great things this season.

The Patriots' schedule is packed with significant matches including local rivalry games against Normandy and Holy Name. The team will host opponents at Byers Field with a season featuring challenging encounters against North Ridgeville, Berea Midpark, and more from their extensive game list. The community and the team mark the games against Normandy and Holy Name as crucial, potentially season-defining clashes.

As the Valley Forge Patriots ramp up their preparations, they look forward to translating their potent mix of seasoned players and youthful talent into a successful campaign, building on the tactical insights of their seasoned coach and the energetic contributions of dynamic players like winger Yousaf Sadiq and striker Yousuf Noori.
