SR. GIRLS BASKETBALL
The Senior girls improved their season record to 8-2 last night with an ugly win over Villanova 56-42. A slow start, rampant foul trouble, and some injuries allowed Villy to hang around, but clutch shooting by Mya Tate and solid defense and a 6-point 4th quarter by Gabby Grubesic helped secure the win. Ariah Hutchings lead the team with 13 points, while Tate and Maya Fuerth both had 12. Next game is against Holy Sandwich Thursday at 4. Be there!
SR. BOYS VOLLEYBALL
Last night the senior boys played against Villanova in LaSalle. The boys played great. Getting the overall win with 2 wins, 1 loss.
Great job boys!

See you there!
