Brian Tannehill Tallassee's Clay Johnson, right, is expected to be a leader for the Tigers this season.

With just three upperclassmen on the roster, Tallassee expects the new soccer season to provide plenty of challenges. The Tigers have seen some of those challenges already as coach Keiven Mixson just wrapped up the boys basketball and has missed the first few weeks of practice.

The Tigers have yet to get on the pitch for the first game, putting themselves a couple weeks behind most teams in the state.
