Coach of the Year
Marlyn Argueta, South River
South River posted a 14-2-1 record and captured the Anne Arundel County championship under Argueta, who just completed his fourth season as head coach.
South River beat Broadneck three times; its two losses came to Severna Park, including in the Class 4A East Region championship game. That marked a dramatic improvement over 2021 when the Seahawks finished 7-5-3 and lost to Annapolis in the first round of the playoffs.
“Losing just twice in a season is pretty incredible,” said Argueta, who played soccer at South River.
