J.V. Boys
Soccer Stands Out
By Chris McElhatton
In a league where almost
every school has a freshmen team, and the junior varsity team
is dominated by up and coming juniors, the Valley Christian JV
boys soccer team is rising to the competition.
Each year builds upon the shoulders of the last, and this year
has been no exception. Though losing some tough matches to teams
like Mitty, Bellarmine, and S.I., all whose varsity teams are
ranked as some of the top in the nation, the J.V. boys have never
stopped fighting. In one of their December matches, they stood
up to the dominating Monarchs, shutting them down an entire game
and losing by only a single goal in the end.
Continuing their struggle even until the first days of Christmas
break, they brought the fight back to challenge Sacred Heart.
The Fightin’ Irish barely held off the determined Warriors, who,
once again, lost the match by only a single point.
After taking the two-week Christmas break to regroup and do some
intense training, the boys hosted Riordan’s J.V. team. This time,
they would not be denied victory. Utilizing the impressive amount
of conditioning they endured over Christmas break, the Warriors
ran Riordan into the ground. After taking the game in a 3-0 win,
the J.V. finally found the results for which they had been searching.

Winter Ball
As guys scrounge up the nerve to ask that special girl to Winter
Ball, girls are spending their time in dress shops looking for
that perfect dress. The worst-case scenario would be for a girl
to walk into Decathlon and see another girl wearing the same dress.
The only way to avoid this terrible situation is to buy a one
of a kind dress from a smaller less popular dress store.
