Boys Soccer

Ethan Leslie was selected as the Gatorade Wyoming Boys Soccer Player of the Year for 2025-26 on Friday. He's the second winner of the award from Kelly Walsh High School.

Kelly Walsh won its first boys soccer title in 14 years behind a four goal performance by Ethan Leslie in Gillette. The Trojans beat Jackson 4-1.

Lander beat Cody in overtime, 2-1, for the first boys' soccer state championship in school history.

Head coaches in both classifications voted on these honors. Twenty-five players in 3A and 4A earned the distinction.

These players received all-conference accolades in a vote by the head coaches.

These are the final records for each boys' team in the state during the 2026 season.

Four teams will earn a state championship by the end of Saturday in Gillette. All four title games will be played at Thunder Basin High School.

Class 3A teams wrapped up their regular season last week. Class 4A teams competed in the two regional tournaments.

Outside of the top seed, teams will face a one-game, loser-out match on Thursday. The winners will qualify for the state tournament, and the losers’ season is done.

It is the last week of the 2026 regular season for Class 3A girls’ and boys’ soccer teams in the Cowboy State.

Laramie senior Rachael Dean and Cheyenne Central senior Teagan Wernick were the winners.

Powell made its season debut, and Cheyenne Central rejoined the boys’ poll for the first time since the preseason rankings.
