We would like to recognize Jaden Garcia and Robbie Lonsberry for having excellent sportsmanship! “Varsity boys soccer player, Jaden Garcia, exemplifies sportsmanship on and off the field and is a role model to our younger students. Jaden puts team before self, asking to have another athlete start over himself at the half of a game for the betterment of the team. Jaden has an outstanding commitment to the team and aides in our success because of it! Robbie Lonsberry currently has an injury and cannot participate in soccer games, but he is always at the games, cheering on his teammates and being positive at all times. Robbie is also great with the younger kids that are at our games, including my son, who "can't wait to kick the ball with Robbie" at the games. Robbie is incredible with the elementary students and a great role model”, said Coach Connolly.
Congratulations to our Varsity Boys Soccer Athletes of the Week, Cooper Davis and Matt Bacon! “Last week, Senior duo Cooper and Matt worked together for 5 goals. Cooper scored 3 including 2 penalty kicks, which Matt assisted on by getting dangerous in the box. Matt scored 2 goals with his explosive speed and getting to the endline all week, giving the Blue Devils many opportunities to score. Cooper and Matt have worked really well together this year and their Senior leadership has led them both to being named captains on the squad,” said Coach Connolly.
