Athletics Update: October 29
The Lions should continue to be proud of their efforts and results on the competitive fields and courts.
The varsity girls’ tennis team’s season came to end this past Tuesday as they were defeated 3-2 by Wyoming Seminary. The girls have a lot to be proud of after finishing undefeated in regular season play as well as capturing both the Colonial League and District XI team titles! Isabella '22 and Chessie Bartolacci’s '24 season continues as they will travel to Hershey next week for the PIAA Doubles tournament.
We are also celebrating the victory of our boys’ cross-country team as they won gold at the District XI Championships. Here is a video of our Team’s celebration!
