LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Dear Readers, Over the past few months, we have seen many teams endure some great football, soccer and volleyball seasons. As the summer days come to an end and the cold, brisk air starts to drift in, we start to switch our focus to the fall and winter sports. Before we do that, we have highlighted many soccer and volleyball teams this season including Eramus Hall, Bayside, Mt. St. Michael’s Academy and others. Each team has its own unique story and challenges, but after talking to numerous players and coaches, they all have the same goal. Unfortunately for them, not everyone will reach it. Over this summer, we have witnessed some football teams go undefeated, dominating the opponents, and we have seen some teams that have relied on their younger players. Some had injuries to the upper classmen and others are loaded with talent for the next few years. This is our last chance to touch on many of our great athletes, as they will be graduating in the spring. With a fresh set of sports ready to go, we say goodbye to the outdoor ones for a few months. Inside this edition you’ll get a chance to read about some of the most successful teams of the summer.
