Glens Falls’ Ayden Grieve: Goalkeeper of the Year

Glens Falls Goalkeeper Ayden Grieve was named Goalkeeper of the Year in Class B at the Section II boys soccer banquet. He was also named to the all-state fourth team in the small schools division. Grieve has played on the Glens Falls High School Varsity Team for 3 years; during his freshman season, he was the starting fullback and back up goalkeeper, and throughout his Sophomore season, Ayden took over as the fulltime goalkeeper. Through that season, he recorded 111 saves and allowed 32 goals. During this past season as a junior Ayden was named team captain, and was instrumental in the team’s success – by the end of the season, Ayden had allowed only 14 goals. The Glens Falls 11-5-2 record helps to reflect Ayden’s contribution… This is an impressive improvement from the previous year, when the team was 4-13-1. 

Ayden has been a goalkeeper since he was 8 years old, and in addition to playing with the Glens Falls Boys Varsity Team, Ayden also plays club soccer with FC Dutchmen Premier.

Athletic Director Shane Jones said: “We are very proud of Ayden for his accomplishments. He is a very talented multi-sport athlete, as he recently just came in 2nd place in our Mat Mania Wrestling Tournament this past weekend.”
