High School Girls
The girls finished their season with a 3-5 TAPPS District Record. They were led this year by seniors Atara Braun, Shayna Guttman and Tehilla Teigman. The girls showed steady improvement through out the season and look to rebound next year and make the playoffs. They will have 10 girls returning next season.
High School Boys The boys finished 8-2 in TAPPS district play which was good enough to land them a 2nd place finish. Next week, the boys will play a warm up scrimmage vs. CHSA on Tuesday at 7:30 pm at Beren Academy. Their first playoff game will be a home game late next week. The opponent and time are yet to be determined.
If your child will miss a practice or a game, please let the coach know prior to the practice. It can come in the form of a text or an e-mail. Please do not have another player relay the message as it is often forgotten or not accurate.
