2019年秋季运动亮点

女孩足球

Girls Varsity Soccer made Senior Day an afternoon to remember on the last day of the season with a strong winning performance followed by a beautiful tribute to their nine seniors from Coach Stadtlander. GK Emily Candela finished her stellar career with 417 saves including 179 this season to lead the defense while midfielder Amanda Faber totaled 47 goals in her four years. Junior Nicole Foster bolstered the attack with 7 goals this season and will lead a young Eagles team next year on our new turf field!

男孩们的足球

With strong representation and commitment from the senior class, Boys Varsity Soccer just missed a second consecutive winning season with a 8-10-1 final record.  Ben Parker led the way becoming our first boy to receive All County 1st team recognition in many years. Memorable moments for Coach Gesch include Sam Faber scoring with a 40 yard rocket shot in an exciting community night win, Evan Hopeck dribbling through the entire DePaul defense in a county tournament win, 马特·库克接洛根·康的传中头球破门, 狂野州在威科夫的草地上获胜. This team will also forever hold the distinction of being the last to navigate the unique topography of the high school “grass” field that was home to the league and state champions of Eagles soccer lore.

男子JV足球

男生JV足球队由9名新生组成, 11 sophomores and 1 junior who worked hard in practice and bonded together through the course of the season, 以7胜7负1的战绩结束比赛. 和这些球员在一起从来没有沉闷的时刻, 谁知道如何在努力的同时享受乐趣呢. Coach Harvell believes many of them will be ready to play at the next level in 2020 and looks forward to seeing what they can accomplish!

女子排球队

The most common pregame word thrown around the locker room before a Varsity Volleyball match was “Fight”.  这一季，女孩们做到了, ending with a 9-12 record that saw several matches go to 3 games, including a season highlight performance against a very competitive Glen Rock team.  还有一个非常强大的毕业班, 队长莫丽·布恩斯特拉和卡西迪·阿布玛带路, ending the season on a high note with a victory over Manchester in 2 sets. Veteran coach Steffanie Honore was pleased that the entire team developed not only skills over the course of the season, 还有领导力和沟通能力.  

女子女子排球

Led by the hitting of co-captain Eva Reinmuth and leadership and outstanding play of 1st year team member Kelly Steenstra, 女孩们享受了一场盛宴 .500赛季. Coach Kendra Visbeen points to the gutsy win vs Lodi on a day when the Eagles were missing 5 starters as the game that best showed their character and capabilities as a team.

大学越野赛

The Cross Country season was “as positive and fulfilling” as any in Coach Apol’s recent memory. 他指着季前赛训练营, training trip down the shore and EC invitational meet as highlights. While Kristen Ghinelli and Luke Parker had outstanding individual seasons, the most impressive team statistic was the steady improvement of everyone. The team moto was “Iron Sharpens Iron” and the Biblical injunction to always encourage, aid and build one another up (even opponents) was always evident. 特别感谢大四学生Elise Reitsma, David Visser and Elijah Crefeld for their leadership by example and enthusiasm for the program. 明年对这支球队来说是好事!

中学越野

The department is thankful and blessed to have had coach Terry Allen come out of retirement to once again lead the team, which featured 11 girls (4 of whom were 8th graders) and 7 boys, 都是第六和第七, some of whom chose double session training both before and after school! In a sport measured objectively by personal improvement the season was certainly a success as all found a fulfilling challenge and opportunity to achieve. 亚历克斯·卡尔普领着孩子们, medaling at the big multi-team Garfield Invitational meet in the season finale. 

中学女子足球

First year coach Kim Meserole’s shared goals for the season were to have fun while learning fundamentals; to choose and practice respect; to come to practices and games with our best attitude and effort; to better our soccer and communication skills, 得到一天, 一个星期, 我们每次踏上球场，比赛都会更精彩.  In one of their final games of the season the girls demonstrated all of the above, 与不败的瓦尔德威克队进行上半场比赛, 1比1的控球和勇气. And while the game’s final score and the team’s record don’t reflect it by statistical standards, this team–led by a dynamic group of eighth graders–had a very successful year indeed.

男子中学足球

The boys had a great season that provided true examples for individual and team growth. 他的队伍主要是八年级学生, first year coach Cory Hoffman challenged the team to take hold of needed leadership roles and to play “all-out!尽管一开始遇到了一些挫折，男孩们还是成功了 .500 final record and only had one loss in the month of October. The key to their growth and success was understanding that individual talent was not enough and only through team play could they accomplish their goals. We look forward to seeing how the eighth graders will impact the next level!
