Brittain, McInerny, Romo all-league for girls soccer

The Valley League girls soccer coaches who selected the all-league teams recognized three Fallbrook High School players for their 2014-15 performances.

Peyton Brittain was selected to the Valley League first team. Savannah McInerny was given second-team designation. Leslie Romo was an honorable mention all-league player.

"They worked their hearts out," said Fallbrook coach Miguel Trejo. "They just put in plenty of work."

The Warriors shared fourth place in the six-team Valley League standings with a 3-4-3 record – which was three more league victories than during the previous six seasons combined. A CIF Division IV playoff win at Foothills Christian and a CIF quarterfinal loss at Olympian finalized Fallbrook's overall record at 7-12-5.

Brittain, a senior, was a midfielder during the 2013-14 season and became a forward for 2014-15. "She's one of the players who creates opportunities and takes advantage of an opportunity given to her," Trejo said.

Brittain had seven goals and four assists during the 2014-15 season. She was a varsity soccer player for all four of her Fallbrook High School seasons and was a team captain as a junior and as a senior. She plans to play soccer for Mira Costa College after her high school graduation.

McInerny is also a senior who spent four years on the Warriors' varsity team and was a captain for the past two seasons. She was a midfielder in 2013-14 and played defender during 2014-15. She scored six goals during her senior season. "She's got tremendous heart and passion for the game," Trejo said. "She knows how to play her position, knows what to do."

Romo is a freshman who was one of the team's defenders. "Leslie, she came out of nowhere," Trejo said.

Fallbrook spent 2012-13 and 2013-14 in the Avocado West League. Brittain was an honorable mention all-league selection for 2012-13 and McInerny was given honorable mention accolades for 2013-14.
