SHS’s Henninger picked for all-state team
Though her team struggled in the win-loss department, Sequim High sophomore Claire Henninger got plenty of respect from opponents and area coaches alike.
In late December, the Washington State Soccer Coaches Association picked the SHS goalkeeper as an honorable mention on its class 2A All-State 2015 Fall Soccer Team. League MVP Cate Moriarty and Briann George, both of North Kitsap, were the only other Olympic League players picked for the team; Moriarty to the first team, George and honorable mention.
The lone underclassman on the all-Olympic League first team, Henninger posted three shutouts and gave up two goals or less in 12 of the Wolves’ 15 games this fall.
