Shoreham-Wading River's Olivia Pesso is not stranger to winning and now she has topped off an incredible high school girls varsity soccer season with a slew of awards and honors.

Pesso is just one of three high school soccer players from Long Island to be named to the All Region team. She was also named the Class A County Player of the Year and the New York State sportsmanship award winner.

Pesso led the Wildcats to their second straight New York State championship game appearance after winning back to back Long Island titles. Pesso proved to be not only one of the best regular season performers, but stepped her game up in the playoffs.

During the Long Island Championship game her coach Gilmore said “I think this was one of the best games I’ve ever seen Olivia play. She was all over the place. She was calm and secure with the ball and really did everything we asked of her.”

What's incredible is Pesso still has another year of eligibility and she also excels at track for the Cats.
