U-32 senior Jack Shea was named the Gatorade Vermont Boys Soccer Player of the Year today. Shea is the first Gatorade Vermont Boys Soccer Player of the Year to be chosen from U-32 High School.
The 6-foot-2 senior midfielder scored 13 goals and passed for nine assists this past season, leading the Raiders to the Division 2 state championship game. An All-American selection by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America, Shea was also the Times Argus Player of the Year and a First Team All-State honoree.
Shea has maintained an A-minus average in the classroom. He has volunteered locally as a mentor for elementary school students in the community.
Last year, Essex’s Paul Bianchi received Player of the Year.
