Week in Review 2/2-2/9
Boys Basketball is really making a change this year. With only three wins last year the team has already doubled that and the season is still not over. Everything started to change when the bishops only lost to their rival, Spellman, by three early in the season. Then just a few weeks later the boys played an outstanding game against St. Mary’s and gave them their only loss in the league. St. Mary’s is always a strong team in the CCL so it was a very big moment for the boys basketball program. As Coach Holden said, “We've played in some close games and have started to learn how to win, which is a huge step for our program.” The boys basketball program has seen a lot of new faces this year and have had some ups and downs but that is not stopping them from working hard at all.
Coach is very pleased with the way his team is growing. He even said, “The best thing about this season has been that every player, regardless of playing time, has really contributed to the success we have enjoyed.” When you go to watch their games you even notice that every game they do not only depend on a certain five to start the game, or play during a close situation. The team is composed of hard working boys who can all step up to the plate. With only one week left in the regular season Coach Holden and his team are still focused on achieving their goals are hoping to do in their final games.
Girls Basketball faced a bitter defeat on Tuesday night. It was a close game against Bishop Fenwick the whole way. In the final seconds Bishop Fenwick hit a buzzer beater to won the game. Later in the week the girls came out ready to play against Arlington Catholic. When they met previously in the season it was a tight game, but not this time. The lady bishops held a large lead the whole game.
Boys Hockey got their second won of the season on Wednesday at home. They took on Barnstable and played three full periods of good hockey. Things did not go the same way on Saturday. Unfortunately they suffered a 5-1 defeat against St. Mary’s.
Girls Hockey had a huge week! After losing to Austin Prep earlier in the season by only 1 the girls were all fired up to take them on again. Their hard work paid off and defeated the Cougars 1-0. It was a big night for the lady bishops on Saturday, congrats!
Track and Field had their last meet of the season. The team played 7th at the Tri-County League Winter Championship Meet which is good considering they were one of the youngest teams in the league. Congratulations to the seniors and the captains Jackie, Erin and David to a great winter season!
Swimming placed sixth in the 15th Annual Catholic Central League Coed Swimming Championship at Lynn Voke Tech. Victoria Butterfield and Vy Doan really stood out among the bishops. Victoria placed 2nd in the 200 Freestyle and 4th in the 500 Freestyle. Victoria was named to the Catholic Central League All Star Team.Vy Doan placed second in the 100 Butterfly and third in the 50 Freestyle. Victoria and Vy were named to the Catholic Central League All Star Team.
