Missouri Athletic Club

High School Senior All-Star Games

St. Louis has a soccer tradition that is unmatched by any city in America. The Gateway City is regarded as the soccer capital of the U.S. That reputation dates back to 1950, when a group of St. Louis boys led the United States to a shocking upset of England in the World Cup. Later, Saint Louis University would dominate the college soccer world throughout much of the 1960s and 1970s. The Billikens 10 national championships are a record. Recently, local players like Taylor Twellmann, Pat Noonan, Steve Ralston and Chris Klein have all been top professional players.

St. Louis has a long history of developing home grown talent. Today's budding soccer stars continue to get excellent coaching and encouragement in the St. Louis region through various leagues, club teams and high schools. To recognize these talented young players, the Missouri Athletic Club sponsors the High School Senior All-Star Games every June. The games feature the top prep boys and girls soccer players in the St. Louis area. Players are divided into North and South teams, depending on their schools' location. The girls' game is at 6 p.m., followed by the boys' at 8 p.m. The games are played at the Anheuser-Busch Center in Fenton. Annually these games feature a number of bright young players who go on to make their mark at some of the top college programs in the country. Hosting the High School All-Star Games enhances the Club’s effort to promote amateur soccer both locally and nationally. The MAC annually honors the top collegiate soccer players with the presentation of the Hermann Trophy.

Local High School Talent Shows Skills in 2010 North-South Games

Eighty of the most talented boys and girls high school senior soccer players in the St. Louis area capped off their prep careers by playing in the annual MAC All-Star Games. Most of the talented players who competed in the showcase at the A-B Center will continue to play soccer at the collegiate level.

The girls game kicked off with a hard-fought 2-2 tie. Goalkeeper Jacy Waldrop (Howell North) was the North MVP. Maddie Heinsohn (St. Dominic) and Breanna Beine (Howell Central) scored goals. Maddie Torretta (Marquette H.S.) tallied a goal and was named the MVP for the South squad.

In the boys game, the North squad put on an entertaining offensive display in a dominating 10-2 victory over the South. North team MVP Ousmane Gueye (Zumwalt South) and Matt Hutchison (CBC) each had a pair of goals. South MVP Jon Roeckle (Vianney) scored both goals for his squad.

Between games, coach Vince Nowak (Howell North) was presented the Steve Krause “12th man” award for distinguished service to high school soccer. The Sam Copple Goalkeeper of the Year honors went to Jodi Chappie (Incarnate Word) and Andrew Riggs (Zumwalt South).
