NORTHEAST KINGDOM – The Vermont Soccer Coaches Association (VSCA) wrapped up a sensational high-school soccer season with the unveiling of the 2025 boys and girls All-Tournament teams.
Several local soccer players were selected after their outstanding play in the postseason this past fall. Cal United’s Samson Kitonga, Ben Monaco and Kaiden Rogers were honored after leading their team to the Division IV state title match. Cal United (16-1) set a program record with an undefeated regular season with their only loss coming to a 17-0 Twin Valley team that capped off a storybook season with a 2-0 win in the state title match in Rutland.
Peoples Academy (PA) made a Cinderella run all the way to the Division III state title match as a No. 8 seed before falling to Vergennes in the Final. Ava Stratman, Sophie Beck and Ella Bless were selected to the All-Tourney team for their outstanding play. Stratman, the daughter of Cal United boys head coach Peter Stratman, scored a pair of goals in the Lady Wolves 2-1 upset of fourth seeded Fair Haven in the Final Four.
Other locals making the VSCA All-Tourney team included: PA’s Ian Nolan, Charles Mathys-Vallario, Miles Laine and Jack Cleary, Stowe’s Tanner Gregory and Mena Spaulding, Lamoille’s Nina Rossi and Harper Fisher, along with St. Johnsbury Academy’s Eleanor Reed and Avery Gelwicks.
