Meet the members of the Daily News Boys Soccer All-Star team for fall 2023

Local athletes made names for themselves with star-studded performances and trophy-towing moments this past fall.

After combing over statistics and results, and with the guidance of local athletic directors and coaches, we at the Daily News selected All-Stars for girls volleyball, golf, field hockey, boys and girls cross-country, boys and girls soccer and football.

Although the sports and skill sets may vary, there’s no denying that this group put up otherworldly numbers this fall while helping their respective teams find success – whether that be on the course, field or in the gymnasium.
