Here at Patch, we love to regularly spotlight young people in the Hartland community who are successful, talented and just plain awesome.
But we need your help. We know those kids are out there doing great things for and in the community, so let us know about them so we can help spread the word.
Today we feature U10 Girls Soccer team from the Hartland United FC who won the WSSL Select D1 Championship.
Introduction: This is the U10 Hartland United Girls Soccer Team. The team includes the players:
- Julia Pietila
- Riley Gerecke
- Rachel Everett
- Karley Niemi

Keys to awesomeness: The team worked very hard to earn this success. Multipal practices weekly even during the winter gave this group an edge to many teams. The group also credits Justin Detter and his coaching team for giving a huge lift in confidence and skills.
