Several players from York and Lancaster County programs have earned spots on the North team roster for the 2026 North-South All-Star soccer matches, set for Saturday, June 13 at Anderson University in Anderson, S.C.
The North-South All-Star event holds the distinction of being the Palmetto State’s oldest high school soccer all-star showcase, bringing together the top graduating seniors from across South Carolina and dividing them geographically into North and South squads. This year’s matches mark a venue change after seven consecutive years at T.L. Hanna High School, with Anderson University hosting the event for the first time.
Local Players on the North Roster
York and Lancaster County schools placed several players on the North team this year, with representation on both the boys and girls sides.
On the boys side, Fort Mill’s Chase Fandel and Andrew Jackson’s Lawson Ardrey both earned spots among the North squad’s 18 players, joining a roster that draws from programs across the Upstate and Midlands. Indian Land’s Coen Wilson also earned a boys selection, giving the Panthers their own representative in the state’s premier all-star showcase.
The girls side features even stronger local representation. Fort Mill placed two players on the North girls roster, with Emma Hilsmier and Emerson Shelton both earning selections, a notable achievement for the Yellow Jackets program. Nation Ford contributed two players as well, with Sophia Banzon and Annie Newton both earning spots, reflecting the strength of the Falcons girls program this past season. Indian Land also placed two players on the North girls roster, with teammates CJ Johnson and Berkeley Slepokura both earning selections, giving the Panthers strong representation on both the boys and girls sides of the event.
The local connection extends to the coaching staff as well. Lee Hanna of Andrew Jackson will serve as one of the two North girls coaches, alongside Greg Boney of Indian Land.
