  • I think that Harlan does have a lot of good players this year, and a good chance to make it to sate. I do not know much about soccer, therfore I do not know what team I would choose to play on. I think that the world cup is all luck and all soccer teams have a chance if they put work in.

  • I think Harlan has potential to be good and continue to grow on both the female and male sides. I dont really know what team I would play for, but I would definetly go somewhere with cool people. 2026 world cup will be won by the USA!

    • i would agree harlan has had some good players and some of the freshman have been coming up to varsity and playing good lately 

  • I believe that every year the teams can get better. Everything improves some time. If I had to play soccer for a team I might chose Mexico, since that is my place of birth. But there are other teams that are really good. I always watch the world cup but I have no idea who will win the 2026 world cup, I just know where it takes place. 

  • I think that the Harlan soccer team has a good shot at going far this year. If I had to play for a soccer team i'm not very sure who I would play for because I don't really watch soccer. I'm not sure who is gonna win the world cup because I don't watch soccer.

    • They have a good shot this year with some good seniors and some good freshman coming up this year. ITs hard to guess whos going to win the world cup we still have 2 years 

  • I don't really know much about the Harlan soccer team, but I hope they do good in their future games. Last year, I watched a few games and I think they did pretty good. I don't really know much about soccer, so during the games I am kind of lost. 

  • Well the game they played last week ended well so yeah I have a good feeling that they will go far but hopfully they don't get too confindent otherwise they won't get that far. the team I would be playing in would be Cruz azul favorite team. I am hoping for mexico.

    • I would agree the cyclone are looking good this year with some good freshman. I think Mexico is probably going far in the world cup with some new talent.

  • I hope our team goes far but there are a lot of seniors on the team this year. If I could choose who to play soccer for I would choose Manchester that's the team I've always kinda followed that team.
