1 year ago: What a finish to an amazing season! We said goodbye to a lot of great seniors following this state championship; also the last time the junior class would wear the SJA jersey. They have certainly left their mark on the program and have raised the ‘Standard’!

Our 2021 season ends with a 1-0 loss to a very good Aquinas team, one who will make some noise in the rest of the tournament. Much love to an amazing group of seniors, whose resilience and determination will leave a lasting impression on this program. Thank you, seniors!
