Coach Bryan Sherman: It was a good week for the team. Winning all three games is nice but the group has yet to really be at their best. There is a lot of potential with this team and if we can put a complete game together, I think we can play with anyone in the conference.

GIRLS’ VARSITY SOCCER
1/10 vs. St. Andrew’s Episcopal* • 0-0 TIE
1/11 vs. St. Stephen’s Episcopal* • 1-1 TIE
Tamsin Prudencio goal, Kat Staebel Assist
Coach Amber Clevenger: The girls have been putting in a lot of hard work in 2020 and it truly paid off this week. Friday’s game versus St. Andrews was a tough game due to the weather and slippery field conditions. The tie isn’t exactly the result we wanted, but it was nice to have a shut-out and see players step up and play well.
Saturday’s game versus St. Stephens was a great game all around and the hard work the team has put in really paid off. Patty Chow came up huge for us with great saves, Sara Gomez did an incredible job keeping us in the game and Tamsin Prudencio tied the game up for us with an assist from Kat Staebel. I’d consider these games a success and I’m looking forward to watching the girls play again Tuesday versus St. John’s and celebrate our seniors, Friday vs. Frassati!
