How Far Can Yorktown Go? | Inside the Patriots’ Undefeated Season

In this episode, I sit down with the 2026 Yorktown Patriots following an undefeated regular season, with everything still ahead of them as the postseason begins — including the possibility of a return to the state semifinals, where last year’s run ended against Deep Run.I’m joined by senior co-captains Elyse Markowski (Emory), Claire Scott (Belmont), Elena Schultz (Virginia Wesleyan), and Jessie Talotta (Virginia Tech) — four accomplished players with thoughtful perspectives on leadership, team culture, and what it has meant to represent Yorktown soccer.We discuss the coaches and influences that shaped their journeys, the challenge of balancing club and high school soccer, and the emotions surrounding these final weeks together as teammates. It’s a fun and insightful conversation filled with laughter, strong chemistry, and genuine reflection from a special senior class.
