ELIZABETHTOWN – East Bladen senior midfielder Jamie Delgado has been selected to play in the 2024 Boys Soccer All-Star game in Greensboro. Delgado was the Co-Player of the Year for the Waccamaw Conference.
“Jamie had a spectacular season,” said Eagle Coach Jay Raynor. “He realized that winning meant making everyone around him better not just him putting the ball in the back of the net. Once he settled down and we figured out exactly what we needed from him, he changed who we were. That meant playing various positions and places on the field depending on how we wanted/needed him to play that day.”
Delgado dished out a team-high 31 assists and led the Eagles in shots on goal (70). He also scored 14 goals and racked up 321 steals as East Bladen posted a 14-7 record and hosted a 1st round playoff game before being eliminated in the 2nd round.
Delgado became the 4th East Bladen soccer player to be named to the North Carolina Soccer Coaches Association All-State team joining previous All-State recipients Gabe Barber, Garrett Melvin and Maya McDonald.
