The latest guest on New England Soccer Journal’s “The Goal” podcast is Canton (Mass.) High School boys soccer coach Danny Erickson.
Erickson is now in his 30th season as Canton’s head coach. Last year, his program had its greatest season ever, advancing to the MIAA Division 2 state championship game, marking the first time the team had ever played for a state title. Canton fell to West Springfield, 2-0.
With the 2022 Massachusetts high school regular season set to begin across the state this week, Erickson joined the show to recap his team’s impressive performance last fall, discuss the statewide playoff system and power rankings, and preview what the upcoming campaign could look like for Canton and other contenders throughout the state.
