Heartbreak in Overtime: Aubrey’s Record-Breaking Season Ends with Gratitude and Grace
Last night, November 5th, the Coyote Girls’ postseason run came to a dramatic end in a golden-goal overtime finish.
With the score tied 11-11 after regulation and overtime, the Coyotes fought until the final seconds. Late in the match, Aubrey found herself wide open in front of the opposing net, calling for the ball. The pass never materialized, and less than 30 seconds later, the opposition found the back of the net to claim the win.
Reflecting on the final sequence, Aubrey admitted it was tough, but expressed immense gratitude for the journey.
“In the moment, I felt denied the opportunity to maybe win the game for the girls,” Aubrey shared. “I did all the things I needed to do to put myself in the right place, but the rest was out of my control. Of course I felt frustrated, but looking at the bigger picture, I also felt blessed to be in that situation in the first place.”
That perspective caps off a remarkably resilient high school season. As a freshman, Aubrey earned her way into the starting lineup by midseason. By her sophomore and junior years, she had become an indispensable force, playing every minute of every game and building deep trust with her coaches and teammates.
Coming into her junior season, Aubrey set ambitious goals: elevate her overall performance while playing in a tougher division and across fewer games than the previous year. She met—and exceeded—every single target.
2026 Season Highlights:
- 38 Goals
- 25 Assists
- 103 Steals (New School Record)
Most notably, Aubrey shattered the school’s single-season steals record—a mark of 81 set in 2018, and previously a record held by her mother back in 2001. To put her 103 steals into perspective, the national average according to MaxPreps sits at just 15 to 20.
“I know steals aren’t given a point value, but I look at it as 103 opportunities I gave our team to score, and 103 opportunities I took away from the other team,” said Aubrey. “If that’s my role, I’m more than good with that.”
There is no downtime for the multi-sport star. Aubrey wraps up her Fall ECNL RL season with Valley United this Sunday before shifting directly to the pitch to rejoin the Coyote Soccer Team, where she has been a standout for the past two seasons. Her club soccer campaign will resume, alongside high school swimming, in the spring. With new goals on the horizon, there will be plenty more to look forward to.

About the Season
Although the girls are playing up an age (2009), they are slowly streaming together a winning streak and are currently 5-0 and leading the division. According to the coach, they decided to play up so they could stay more local during the spring season. In addition, if they played in their age group, we would have been playing against our own Black Team. That causes issue if we need to guest play certain players. For example, Aubrey plays on both the 2010 Black Team and the 2010 Orange Team, and the Orange Team playing up, allows her to play on both. Can we finish 8-0? We will see. It looks like a tight race between both the Valley United Teams (09 Franco and 10 Julio).

State Cup Premier (Tier 3) Division Champs 2021-22
Ole Ole Ole
This girl's team has been on an upward roll for months. They went from High Silver Division 2 years ago, to Premier this year and without missing a beat, and they took State Cup by storm. The team shut out both opponents in the semi finals and finals to secure a Championship victory in overtime on Saturday. Aubrey almost ended the game in regulation with 30 seconds to go, when she carried the ball from the whole field. She got the shot off, but not before they knocked her off balance... she still got the shot off, but by the time she recovered, the goalie recovered and snatched the ball.
After 2 Overtime periods, they celebrated their 1-0 victory against the Mustangs of San Ramon
According to Coach Julio Dolores, the message was "Have fun and enjoy the moment!" and the team embraced the opportunity and as you can see, they enjoyed the moment as well. "We were very fortunate to have things go our way" Coach Tatro said. "The game was pretty even with a lot of highs and lows, but we just kept grinding... our defense was so solid, and our keeper never gave an inch". Proof as Trinity Bannister guessed correct on a PK and they had several set pieces from just outside the box that were denied. Between Aubrey's field blocks, Bannister's on point goal keeping and the team's ability to clear out... they really never posed a threat beyond what Bannister could handle.

What do you mean I'm playing goalie?
Aubrey normally plays wing and center-back on this team, but in the Championship she had to play goalie, as our #1 goalie was out.
