Wildcat girls soccer awarded 7 spots on All-Frontier League team

The Louisburg girls soccer team put together its best season in four years as the Wildcats rolled to No. 1 seed in the Class 4-1A playoffs, finished second in league play and ended the 2025 season in fourth at the state tournament.

Several Wildcat players caught the eye of the Frontier League coaches throughout the year and were recently rewarded for their efforts.

Louisburg earned seven spots on the All-Frontier League team that was recently released, including a pair of first team selections in seniors Rowan Yows and Baileigh Johnson.

“Overall, I think we represented really well for the Frontier League,” Louisburg coach Jordan Roquemore said. “We had even selections overall which was more volume than any other team. 

“Whether unfortunate or not, we showed better offensively than defensively in the league. I believe this is because our offense was on full display in many of our Frontier League games while our defense was not highlighted as much.”

Not only was Yows a first-team selection, but she was also named the Frontier League Player of the Year by the coaches and for good reason.

Yows finished the season with 29 goals and 10 assists and was also named the Midfielder of the Year.

“Rowan had a phenomenal season,” Roquemore said. “She was the most dangerous player on the field in nearly every game we played. She is fast, shifty, had incredible footwork and finishes really well. We would not have made it to the Final Four without her and I was so proud to see her play to her full potential this season.”

Johnson was another force offensively for the Wildcats. The senior forward posted 10 goals on the season to go along with six assists to earn first team honors.

“Baileigh has the strongest leg on our team, making her a scoring threat from just about anywhere in the our attacking third,” Roquemore said. “Baileigh contributed for us taking corner kicks and having more crosses than anyone else on the team.”

Freshman Kahlan Harris was another big offensive threat for Louisburg as she earned second team honors. In her first year in the program, Harris was second on the team with 13 goals to go along with 10 assists from the forward spot. 

“Kahlan had an excellent first season in high school,” Roquemore said. “She tied for the most assists on the team. Kahlan is an amazing athlete and one of the hardest workers on our team. She caused problems for other teams often in our attacking third.”

A strong Wildcat defense was also highlighted as senior Jaden Bentz and junior Faith Sewell earned second team honors, as did goalkeeper Ally Brown. 

Bentz and Sewell led a big strength of the team as the Wildcat defense gave up just 14 goals during their 16-5 season.

“Faith was a crucial piece of our team this year,” Roquemore said. “She was the anchor of our defense and a key player for us all season. She also was huge for us on free kicks and a dynamic part of our possession game as we built attacks from the back. Faith went from a really good player last season to a great player this season and a on-field leader.

“Jaden is the best 1v1 defender in our league and it’s not even a question. Jaden has shut down some of the best offensive players in 4A this season. She is a ninja with her speed and precision and was absolutely dominant in her position as a wingback this year.”

As for Brown, it was her first year ever in goal as she made a big impact in the back of the Wildcat defense. She finished with 12 clean sheets and had 91 saves on the year. 

“Ally had a stand-out season,” Roquemore said. “Although the total shots against her lower than average because of our outstanding team defense, Ally was there when we needed her and she continued to improve all season long. Ally is an excellent athlete with great judgement and her presence was a stabilizing force for us in the back this season.”

Junior midfielder Mena Fercho earned honorable mention honors for Louisburg and was an important part of the Wildcat midfield.

“Mena was great this season in our midfield,” Roquemore said. “She quarterbacked plays for us and is also a major reason for our strong possession numbers.”
