The boys junior varsity soccer team had a great season with a final record of 7-1-2.

In his sixth season as the JV head coach, Michael Rossi says he's most proud of

how his players have worked to improve

their behavior and performance in the classroom all season long. "These young

men have represented their school

extremely well through their discipline and demeanor on and off the field."

Although there have been many great moments and some great games, Coach Rossi says their most memorable moment came when they were losing to Wheeler 2-0 at halftime. They scored 8 goals in the second half to win 8-3. "The boys responded really well in an adverse situation," he said. "They are a special group of players who will be exciting to watch at the varsity level over the next 4 years."

This season the JV team started with 5 returning players and had roughly 7 players to move to their varsity program. Many other JV players worked hard enough to earn playing time in s few varsity games as well. It seems like with the incoming freshmen, next season, the Falcon's soccer team is in pretty good shape.
