Today we hit you with a very 2020 podcast and explore what we've dubbed, The Lost Season. In particular, we are focused on the Abraham Lincoln High School Railsplitters boys' high school program today, with head coach Jack Simons joining us in the studio. Simons' passion for the game is palpable. The only thing that seems to usurp that passion is his dedication to his student athletes - his commitment to their well-being and success. So when he showed up on the southside in 2012, he had aspirations for the soccer program. He wanted to show them what they could be because they had serious talent! Fast forward to the present and not only have the Rails improved their results, they've regularly found themselves going deep into their sub-state bracket and have produced several college-bound players, including some D1 prospects. After a difficult 2019 season that saw a lot of personalities get in the way of their talent and success, Simons was extremely optimistic for the 2020 season. He had a special group of seniors that really knew what it meant to be a Railsplitter. And then it was cancelled. Listen in to hear a little more of their story.
