O'Neal slides to win

Carl O’Neal pitched a near perfect complete game and got the win with a 7-1 victory over the Huskies and a little help from hot bats and good defensive plays from his teammates.  Next game is against Brandeis.

Congratulations to Hunter Gathright who scored an even par 108 in the 27 hole Joe Balander Invitational at Jimmy Clay Golf Course. Tied with two others, Hunter won in the playoff.

Despite 11 hits and 13 runs, the girls JV softball team tied Brandeis 13-13.

But it was the way they did it that we’ll remember. Taking on the #2 team in the country in the 2nd round of the playoffs could be daunting. Not to our girls. They gave ’em all they wanted, taking them to two overtimes and then to a shootout where a close shot wasn’t close enough. The final was a loss but hold your head high, ladies. A great season and a great game. Congratulations for a season worth watching.

Clark vs. Lee

The men’s varsity soccer team came out fighting against the #2 Lee Volunteers but the ball didn’t bounce their way. The result was a 2-0 loss in the area playoff round. It was an outstanding effort by the Cougars.  Congratulations on a great season and a hard fought game.
