Fall sports wrap up their seasons

Field Hockey

The 2017 campaign was full of championships for the field hockey team. Led by captains Julia Russo, Ashley Iannuzzi, Sarah Iannuzzi and Devyn Aschenbach, the team won the Essex County Championship and the North Jersey Section 1, Group 2 championship. The team’s final record was 21-2-1.

Boys Soccer

2017 was a promising year for the boys soccer team. Led by captains Cooper Steinberg and Ryan Murphy, they ended with a record of 10-8-1. Their big achievement this season was that they finished as sectional finalists. With a lot of players returning next year, the team should keep their foot on the pedal into another successful season next year.

Girls Soccer

A turnaround is a perfect way to describe the girls soccer team. Behind senior captains Brielle Krause, Daria Wendell, Maddie Galligan and Julia Farese, the team went from 5-10-2 last year to 13-7-1, more than double their previous win total. This was an overall successful season, that included a record above .500.

Girls Tennis

The 2017 season continued the girls tennis team’s championship glory. They finished with a 11-7 record and won the Group 2, Section 2 title for the third straight season behind Julia Schwartz, Madison Santaromita, Caroline Ben Nathan and Jennifer Ben Nathan. With returning starters coming next season, the team looks promising to continue its championship trend.     

Volleyball

This season involved a really young team getting used to play at the high school level and playing as a unit. They finished at 4-16, but with the team gaining steam near the end of the season, signs point to a good season next year. The season started off slow, but as the team’s confidence grew, a better result came on the court. The team learned to play as both individuals and a team, and their overall performance was improved.
