Graduation has hit the Newburgh Free Academy boys’ and girls’ soccer team’s hard after the 2023 season, and both will head into the 2024 season with young rosters. The Goldbacks will enter the season having lost Yensel Granados, Dennis Ayala, Angel Rosario, Steven Hernandez, and Henry Moran to graduation.

However, they will return some key players in Nick Thomaz, Frank Mandato, Jordy Moran, Justin Saravia, Isaac Ortega, and Larry Robinson.

While the Goldbacks may be young – nine sophomores and a freshman – the talent is there.
“As always, we go into the season with high hopes of contending for the sectional title,” Newburgh boy’s coach Matt Iorlano said. “There is a lot of work to be done, but the groundwork is there.”
