This month, Section V’s boys soccer players will return to the pitch to begin another season of competition.
As summer nears its end, it’s never too early to guess which star player will be the region’s best this fall.
The list of nominees is based on returning All-Greater Rochester, all-state and all-county selections from 2024, and includes players on teams projected to compete in Class B, Class C and Class D.
Our poll will remain open through 8 p.m. Monday, Aug. 25. We will announce the winner on our Instagram account Aug. 27.
