Duke – Louisville for the ACC 👑👸! Both are heading to the Dance 💃 and hopefully both opening up at Home !!!

The ACC has been chalk city this week with two toss up games ( 8 vs 9) and (4 vs 5 ) being the only blips. The biggest surprise is that Notre Dame ran  away from the Wolfpack in that 4 – 5 match-up.

Should be a great one !

Louisville up after the 1st, 21 – 14 after a circus 🎪 buzzer beater for Duke

Wow !What a Game !!!!

. Both JV and Varsity Boys tied a game and lost 2 games by 1 goal. Our boys were in every game and had chances to win it but it didn’t go our way. We learned alot and most players got much needed experience on Varsity and much needed experience as first time jv players as well.

Looking forward to seeing the season unfold, both on the Tommy Thompson Field Pitch and across the region !
