DAILY STAR PLAYER OF THE YEAR

Molly Maguire

Walton, jr., midfielder

Led area players in goals (25) and points (59) while helping Walton to a 13-3-1 record. ... Scored in the Warriors' 5-2 season-ending, overtime loss to Marathon in a Section Four Class C semifinal. The Olympians went on to win the sectional title. ... Walton's all-time leader with 56 goals, Maguire set school's single-season record for goals in 2010. ... "She would probably run through a wall for me," Walton coach Kelly Gates said. "Anyone would love to have her as a player. She's out there working hard and she's doing everything I ask of her." ... First Walton player to earn Daily Star's top honor in girls soccer. ... Qualified for state track meet in the 3,000-meter run as a freshman. ... Also plays for Walton's twice-beaten basketball team.

DAILY STAR COACH OF THE YEAR

Chris Saggese

Milford, second season

Guided young squad with eight underclassmen in the starting lineup to the Section Four Class D title. ... After starting the season 0-2, the Wildcats went unbeaten over their next 16 games before falling, 3-1, to Remsen in a Class D state quarterfinal. ... Milford's 15-3-1 season included a 1-0 victory over Morris in the Tri-Valley League final and a 1-0 win over Gilbertsville-Mount Upton in the sectional title game. ... "Our biggest asset was playing together as a unit," Saggese said. "All 11 girls had to be on the same page." ... Before taking over for Lorin Campbell, Saggese coached modified soccer at Milford for four seasons and then assisted Oneonta State men's soccer coach Iain Byrne for two seasons.

DAILY STAR FIRST TEAM ALL-STARS

Emily Brennan

Milford, sr., defender

Leadership and experience helped guide young Milford to the Section Four Class D title this past season. ... Also started on sectional championship team as an eighth-grader. ... Stopper scored winning goal with 34 seconds left to defeat Tri-Valley League rival Cherry Valley-Springfield in key game late in the 2010 season. ... "Emily reads the game really well and is an all-around phenomenal player," said Milford coach Chris Saggese, The Daily Star's 2010 Coach of the Year. "She was the backbone of our defense and the head of our offense. She was a major component of our success."

Kaley Chase

Milford, fr., forward

Led Tri-Valley League in scoring with 19 goals and five assists in her second varsity season. ... Had a knack for scoring big goals, including the winners in 1-0 victories over Morris and Gilbertsville-Mount Upton in the Tri-Valley crossover and Section Four Class D final, respectively. ... Also scored Milford's goal in a 3-1 loss to Remsen in a Class D state quarterfinal. ... "Kaley's soccer IQ is off the charts," Milford coach Chris Saggese said. "She's very determined and a hard worker, and she knows how to finish around the goal. She always seems to be in the right place at the right time, and that's not an accident."

Sarah Haight

Davenport, fr., forward

Third Team all-state selection in Class D scored 23 goals, which was second in the area to Daily Star Player of the Year Molly Maguire's 25. ... Sister Chelsea is Davenport's all-time leading goal scorer with 134. ... Sarah has 38 goals through her first two varsity seasons. ... "She emerged to be our go-to girl," Davenport coach Ray Preston said. "We needed someone to step up and she did this year. The girl just loves soccer and works hard at the game." ... Also had three assists in helping Wildcats to 13-4-1 season. ... Also plays basketball and runs track.

Ksenia Hanlon

Cherry Valley-Springfield, jr., forward

One of the Tri-Valley League's fastest and most athletic players. ... Led CV-S (13-4-1) with 18 goals and four assists in her second varsity season. ... Scored what proved to be the winning goal in a 2-1 victory over eventual Section Four Class D champion Milford in the first game of the season. ... First Team Tri-Valley League All-Star earned a Fourth Team all-state honor in Class D. ... "Her acceleration on the field is what really sets her apart," CV-S coach Amy Garretson said. "She's a phenomenal athlete and is always working to improve her game."

Tara Keaney

Schenevus, sr., defender

Four-year starter switched from stopper to sweeper as a senior and helped the Dragons to a 10-4-4 record. ... "Her work ethic is just unbelievable," Schenevus coach Stephanie Banks said. "She kept everyone positive and was a really well-rounded player." ... Banks said not only did Keaney read plays well as a defender, but she was also counted on to get Schenevus' offense started. ... Two-year captain is also a leading candidate to become school's valedictorian. ... Also plays basketball and softball for the Dragons.

Dani Nicosia

Oneonta, soph., forward

Teamed with fellow first-teamer Karsen Shultz and second-teamer Cami Cleaveland to form high-scoring front line for 14-3-1 Yellowjackets. ... Scored 11 goals and had three assists. ... Used speed and perhaps the strongest leg on the team to create problems for opposing defenses. ... "She's always had great vision and passing ability, and this season she found the correct balance of when to try to score and when to lay it off to a teammate," OHS coach Jerry Mackey said. ... Also a key contributor for the Yellowjackets' 12-0 basketball team. ... Earned all-Southern Tier Athletic Conference honors.

Laura Potter

Gilboa, sr., forward

School's all-time leader in goals (82) and points (186) earned First Team all-state honors in Class D. ... Scored team-high 16 goals to go along with one assist for the 12-4-1 Wildcats. ... Also a Daily Star first-teamer last season, when she had 27 goals and six assists. ... "Her 1-on-1 ability, still being able to get through even when she was double-teamed, she could still penetrate and get shots off," Gilboa coach April Houghtaling said. ... Among colleges interested in her services are Oneonta State and New Paltz. ... "I think she can help any teams she goes to as a scorer or a creator," Houghtaling said.

Taylor Ross

Edmeston, sr., defender

Four-year starter helped Edmeston to a 61-15-4 record during her four varsity seasons, which included two sectional titles and a co-Class D state championship in 2008. ... "She's always been a competitor, no matter what sport she plays," Edmeston coach Melanie Mumbulo said of the Fourth Team all-state selection in Class D. "She may not take the correct angle or make the correct move, but she's competitive and she's going to battle. She always seems to find a way." ... Had one goal and two assists as a senior. ... Looking to play soccer in college, with Division II schools Le Moyne and the College of Saint Rose among the possibilities.

Emma Ryanmiller

Cooperstown, sr., forward

Fast, competitive three-year starter led Cooperstown with 19 goals and 11 assists this past fall. ... "She is one of the best and was one of the most dependable and versatile players on the field for us," Cooperstown coach Jennifer Pindar said. ... Scored 37 goals and had 16 assists in her three seasons. ... Named to Section Three Class C All-Star Team and received Fifth Team all-state honors in Class C. ... Plans to play soccer at Division II Edinboro this fall.

Karsen Shultz

Oneonta, jr., forward

Received heavy consideration for Daily Star Player of the Year after scoring 12 goals and assisting 12 others. ... Speed and shooting ability helped the Yellowjackets to a 14-3-1 record that ended with a 2-0 loss to Chenango Forks in the Section Four Class B final. ... "She put so much pressure on a defense," OHS coach Jerry Mackey said. "She's super-aggressive and she gave us constant energy and offense up front." ... Earned Fourth Team all-state honors in Class B. ... Also received all-Southern Tier Athletic Conference accolades. ... "We're happy to have her back," Mackey said.

Sienna Wisse

Oneonta, sr., midfielder

As far as three-sport standouts go, OHS hasn't had many better than Wisse. ... In addition to her work at midfield during the fall, she's a 1,000-point scorer on the basketball team and a solid third baseman in the spring. ... Had five goals and a team-best 13 assists in helping the Yellowjackets advance to the Section Four Class B final. ... "She was usually marking the other team's center midfielder and sometimes she'd have to go to the penalty box and beyond and then we'd expect her to join us on the other end," OHS coach Jerry Mackey said. "She has really good foot skills and the good vision that translates to the basketball court."
