The girls’ soccer team has started off strong. They are currently 1-1. The movement of the ball has been fantastic moving up the field. In the first game, they beat Palisades by a score of 5-1. 

They brought that confidence into the next game but lost Blue Mountain. The team bounced back to beat Faith Christian by a score of 2-1. They continue to work hard and improve on their footwork and overall gameplay every day at practice. They are looking forward to their next game in the following weeks.

The boys’ soccer team has had a successful start to the season.  The boys followed up their hard-fought 2-1 win over Pocono Mountain East with a 4-0 victory over Palisades and an 8-0 trouncing of Pocono Mountain West.  Unfortunately, the past few games have been tough losing to three very good teams in Faith Christian, Swain and Brandywine Heights. They will round out their season with rematches against Faith Christian and Palisades.
