Sophomore Jaquan Ellis scored 17 goals in nine games to help lead Cardinal Hayes to first place in the division. 
Jaquan’s scoring streak is impressive, considering that he hadn’t played organized soccer in nearly five years. 
His basketball coach at Cardinal Hayes spread the word of Ellis’ athleticism to the soccer coach, who gave him a chance on the team and a lot of opportunities on the field.
