On a beautiful Friday afternoon the Varsity Soccer team played one of their best games of the season against the Quakers of Tandem Friends School. The exciting match encompassed a full team effort that was displayed by all three goals being assisted. Nathan Anderson assisted on the first 2 goals of the game, one in the 7th minute and the other in the 19th minute. Goals were scored by Xiao ZhengNan and Julio Galindo respectively, as the team took a 2-1 lead at the break.

The Cross Country Team started their season with the Knights Crossing Invitational on Saturday. After only a week of practice the Tigers placed 19th out of 21 schools in the small public high school and all private school division. The overall times were faster than the large school division. Our team would have placed lower but a mishap with the timing chip did not register two of our runners (Jay Thompson & Negatu Syrcle) who would have scored for us. The following Tigers scored in order of finish: Mason Schrage (20:17), Wes Marquardt (20:31), Adian Thomas (22:49), Caleb Chester (24:35), and Ethan Teluk (24:58). Bohong Yang (27:55) rounded out the field for Hargrave. Great job Tigers!
