<p class="text-gray-700">The returning County Player of the Year is the Senior leader for the defending champions. Zeppos offers elite ball skills that were unmatched by her Divisional opponents. In addition to leading the team in goals scored, she also leads the county in assists. Look for Zeppos to continue creating scoring opportunities as Wyomissing prepares for a deep playoff run.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Piltz has been among the county leaders in goals scored throughout her 4 year career. She utilizes her change of pace and can accelerate behind defensive lines to create scoring opportunities. Piltz, a Senior forward, became the all time leading goal scorer for Hamburg this year.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Leffler has consistently been among the top players in the county winning Player of the Year in 2022. She is a natural goal scorer with the ability to separate from defenders. Despite dealing with some injuries earlier in the season she looks to be regaining her elite form at the right time.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Ortiz is the heart and soul of this Wilson team. She gives 100% effort each game and offers an element of physicality. Ortiz plays lockdown defense as a holding midfielder and excels at delivering deadly set piece balls that have created many timely goals this season.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">One of the fastest players in the county, Hess can play numerous positions utilizing her speed and skill. Primarily a defender, Hess has chipped in with 6 goals this season. Look for her to provide shutdown defense against the top forwards in the state as Governor Mifflin looks to advance in county and district playoffs.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">This is a strong Exeter team that should contend for Berks County titles this year and beyond. While they have many talented players, I have been most impressed by<strong> </strong>McAuliffe. She has an exceptional work rate and always seems to make the right decision when she is on the ball. McAuliffe is a team first type of player looking to find her teammates in space.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Reader has been one of the top freshmen players in the county this season. She has excelled as a box to box midfielder with the ability to mark key opponents and also get forward contributing to the Hamburg attack. Look for her to be among the league leaders for seasons to come.</p>
