Last year, Clay boys soccer coach Zachary Soncrant was chosen the Alan Miller Jewelers All-Press Coach of the Year after leading his team to a 12-5 season. It was the second best mark in school history.
For Clay boys soccer to finish 7-9-1 in the league they play in and the injuries they suffered, said a lot. It also says a lot about the program’s future.

Clay baseball finally gets to play on the infield artificial turf installed at Oregon Recreation Complex’s John Ousky Field in the fall of 2019. Last year the Eagles only had a brief opportunity to get early season training on the turf before the season was shut down because of the coronavirus pandemic. This year, the Eagles are taking full advantage. “After the disappointment of the 2020 season, it has been exciting to get back at it,” Clay coach Jim Phillips said. “This year’s team has a high ceiling, and leadership will play a pivotal role in getting us to reach that ceiling.”
