BOYS SOCCER | Varsity

The Providence Catholic Boys Soccer program works to represent Providence Catholic’s values of truth, love, and unity by developing a team atmosphere from Freshmen year through Senior year.  Through teamwork, the program implements a possession style of play.  They work to keep possession of the ball, while making it difficult for the opposing team to score.  The team works to run a high pace offensive attack centered on movement off of the ball.  The coaching staff’s goal is to have the team playing at the highest level come playoff time.

The Boys Soccer program has two teams: Junior Varsity and Varsity.  Head Coach Dan Potempa (1997) continually tries to motivate players to play to their fullest potential.  Coach Potempa coached at the Sophomore level from 2001 to 2006 before moving to the Varsity level in 2006.  Coach Potempa is assisted at the varsity level by Kyle Langan.  The Junior Varsity team is coached by Ryan Kearney and Mike Vertin. The coaching staff provides daily in-season practices for student-athletes to challenge themselves to be the best they can be.

Currently, the team participates in the Chicago Catholic League South.  Since 2006, the program has won Conference championships at all levels.  All games are played at the Gougar Road fields located West of the main campus off of Gougar Road.
