While the season’s top players—Hernan Molina, Angel Tejera, Joao Dos Santos, Ernesto Vasquez, and Antonio Da Silva—contributed in multiple ways, their individual goal and assist tallies remain unrecorded. Nonetheless, their collective effort and team-oriented approach have been instrumental in achieving this historic season.

Despite their flawless record, there is room to develop individual attacking contributions and perhaps diversify goal scorers to avoid over-reliance on a core group. Additionally, maintaining this level of consistency in higher divisions will require continued focus on tactical adaptability and squad depth.
