All-Greater Savannah Girls Soccer First Team Review

Richmond Hill and Country Day set the standard

The report gives Richmond Hill five places, with experience at both ends of the pitch.

  • Ella Peterson: senior forward
  • Kamryn Martinez: senior goalkeeper
  • Maggie Dodge: midfielder/defender
  • Talia Christman: defender
  • Edyne Perry-Anderson: midfielder

That spread is significant. Richmond Hill is represented in attack, midfield and defence, with Peterson and Martinez providing an established presence in the penalty areas. Dodge’s dual role adds further flexibility to a group that is not dependent on one unit.

Savannah Country Day matches that total with a selection profile built around the middle of the pitch. Reese Bailey, Madison Bueno and Emma Bromley give the school three midfield selections, while Lauren Lewis covers defence and sophomore goalkeeper Bella Grace Baker completes the group.

A strong spine across the schools

Calvary Day is the next most represented school with three selections. Alyssa Gibson leads the line, Sara Harper Bennett anchors the defence and Kiley Singleton fills the central midfield role.

That forward-centre-back-midfielder combination offers a clear spine. Elsewhere, the list values adaptable players. Elena Laygo is selected in defence/midfield, while Cydnee Webb is recognised as a forward/midfielder.

Savannah Arts also has three selections, with Brooklyn Linstroth, Laygo and freshman forward Ryanne Gunn highlighting another blend of control and flexibility.

Youth gives the list a longer horizon

The report identifies sophomores Gibson, Baker, Singleton and Linstroth, alongside freshmen Gunn and Webb. That underclass presence gives the wider Savannah area a clear group to follow beyond this selection.

The next school season will test whether Richmond Hill and Savannah Country Day can sustain their depth, while the younger honourees look to turn recognition into leadership.
