In the past the Davis high girls Soccer team has been one of the best sports at Davis. Just before their 2017-18 season the Darts had achieved a National ranking, not a single loss in the previous three seasons, and numerous region and state titles. From the 2017-18 season we can see this change in dominance. The Davis high soccer team has gone from never losing and blowing teams out by double digit goals, to losing games barely scoring at all. Many fans and competitors have asked, where has this massive power gone? All though no one knows for sure, we are hoping that the soccer team can soon return to their former glory.
