We are into the final stretch of January, and our teams have been busy. Here’s how everyone played last week:

 

Girls’ Basketball

The varsity team lost games against Hampton and Fox Chapel last week, falling to 4-11 on the season. JV did get back in the win column last week, while the seventh grade team pulled off an overtime win to stay undefeated this winter.

 

Boys’ Basketball

Varsity posted a 2-1 record last week, including a thrilling 97-85 victory over Pine-Richland on Friday. Junior Royce Parham set a program record for most points in a game with 47 in the win.

 

Freshman basketball also went 2-1 last week, moving to 13-2 on the season. Both middle school teams went 1-1.

 

Swimming and Diving

The swimming and diving teams hosted Pine-Richland last week and both lost tightly-contested meets. The boys’ team fell 93-84, while the girls lost 101-72.

 

Wrestling

Varsity wrestling lost at home against Pine-Richland last Wednesday before competing in the Allegheny County Tournament over the weekend. The team finished eighth and had a couple of strong individual performances as Giavonie Schipani (114 lbs) finished third and Evan Letky (189 lbs) took home second place.

 

Junior high beat Pine-Richland and wrestled well at the South Side Tournament over the weekend.
