The Coyotes advanced to consecutive regional finals in 2007-08 and added division championships in 2008 and 2010. Peabo Doue was an ’08 second-team All-Met.
Clarksburg reached the summit when it captured the 2009 Maryland 3A state championship. The Coyotes went 13-1-3 in winning the school’s first team state title. In The Washington Post’s final ranking, they finished No. 2.
With a team GPA over 3.5, United Soccer Coaches (then NSCAA) recognized the squad with an Academic All-American award. In the final FAB 50 poll, the team was ranked 50th nationally.
