LHSAA crowns eight 2026 soccer state champions

The LHSAA soccer season (both boys and girls) wrapped up this week with eight state championships at Southeastern Louisiana’s Strawberry Stadium.

Teams from up and down Interstates 10 and 12 claimed the crowns over the course of a series of tight matchups Wednesday through Saturday: none decided by more than two goals, four by a single goal and two on penalty kicks.

Here’s a look at the final contests and eight state champions.
