The Spring sports seasons came to a closure this week. The softball team started the season slow but with extra practice and solid commitment finished the year strong. With a large group of students who had not faced this sort of competition, they certainly played like experienced players. Although the team was eliminated in the second round of the playoffs, there were numerous positives to come out of the season. The 6th grade class had excellent attendance at practice and at games and by sticking together will have a bright future. Three-run home runs in the first playoff game by George Rendon and Ivan Delgado sparked a rally and a comeback win. Great pitching all season by 7th grader Paul Hayes gave us consistency on the mound. Overall, the players improved their fundamentals and worked hard to get better each and everyday. I hope for more success next season.
Our first year in the St. Stans Volleyball league proved to be a success. The team improved greatly from the start of the season to the end by practicing hard and with a purpose each day. A close 3 game match in the championship game resulted in 15-13 loss and an overall 2nd Place Finish. Many of the 8th grade girls will have solid careers ahead of themselves in high school and I look forward to following their success as they move on.
