The boys soccer team at Wichita Classical is led by co-head coaches Justin Kenas and Nathan Wilkey, who have been around each other for a long time both having ties to Tabor College and Maize high school.
For the co-head coaches, they believe that this will be a good one as they are young, but experienced.
“We will be more skillful than we have in the past and have the ability to have more possession,” Kenas said. “We are not as athletic as we have been in the past but we have more soccer experience. We will play better soccer but we will be young. As we grow in maturity over the year our ability to beat better teams will improve.”
The Saints return upperclassmen Owen Tucker and all-state forward Kai Krieger offensively and bring in an all-freshman midfield in Charlie Ochs, Simon Graham and Eli Krieger.
Kenas is banking on him and Wilkey being able to keep continuing to develop his players on and off the field.
“We believe coaching is discipleship,” Kenas said. “We hope to raise young men who love Jesus, work hard, and serve others. We aim to become better soccer players while growing in maturity and becoming better servant leaders.”
