either current head coach, Tom Otis, or Eric Nelson would be the best from bedford.

bridges is good as an individual, but a few years ago soccer became a team sport with 11 players playing on a team at once, so if it werent for that aspect bridges would be on the list, but as it is, he's a mediocre player. hopefully if he plays college ball he can learn how to work off his teammates instead of trying to take on 2 or 3 defenders everytime and losing the ball, then he will be good, until then he is mediocre

I know most of the programs are rather young, yet I still haven't seen a whole lot of the history of D5 soccer. But from what I have seen (96-present):

Everett- disregarding exchange students (Christian Unneberg)...Justie Brambley

Chesnut Ridge- Josh Wolfe developed into one heck of a goalie...I've played with most of the quality Ridge players in the past 10 years and Josh played his position better than anyone else

Hyndman- Aaron(?) Shaffer...he held their scoring record before Corey Diehl and I thought that he had a better all around game

Northern- they have had a ton of quality individuals in my time... I'm not even sure of who to pick out of the group, but I would have liked to have seen Brandon Bowser play soccer all four years...he was excellent as a freshman

I've played against some excellent guys from Fulton County, but I don't know enough to give an opinion there.

Sorry, I don't think I can even name a Somerset County player...wait, Josh Will from Berlin...oh and Dave Shaffer.

north star it is without a doubt elliot foster.....he was offered D1 scholarships by almost every major school in the country but due to terrible grades and low SAT scores he couldn't go to any. So he attended community college and after about a year aborted college all together and now has a regular job somewhere but roomer does have it tha he is planning on trying out for the riverhounds next year. BTW, he was first team all state his senior year.

4-him the guy your talking about is Adam shaffer from hyndman .....he did have the scoring record before him ......Rodney Lehman had the record for a long time before shaffer Id have to say Lehman is the man cause they made it to states the one year he played and the four years he played they had some really good records.

Steve Beakon can't be left off the Bedford list. I believe he held the goal record before Otis and then Nelson broke it.
