Varsity Boys Soccer

Our Varsity Boys Soccer Team advance to the State Semifinals and travel to take on Davidson Day School today, October 22nd, at 4:00pm.  The road leading up to this game was not easy for the Warriors.  For the first time in 10 years, our Warriors have made it this far in the playoffs.  Our Warriors are the only UNRANKED  team in the 3A bracket whose chance for a state title is still alive.  They have persevered through a tough regular season plagued with injuries and games cancellations beyond their control due to inclement weather.  With that being said, let's cheer for our Varsity Boys Soccer Team and Coaches as they continue to embark on their championship dreams!  GO WARRIORS!
