We'd like to congratulate the 8th grade girls basketball players and coaches, current and past, on their amazing CYO efforts!
This year, the 8th grade girls basketball team finished the regular season in 2nd place, finishing with a record of 8-2. Over their 5 years of CYO basketball, this class won 3 League Tournament titles, 1 League Tournament runner-up, and finished each regular season in either 1st or 2nd place.
Their dedication to each other, the school, and good sportsmanship always exemplified the highest standards of CYO values. This year's team included: Allie Hamilton, Ava Howard, Izzie Kenney, Hannah Mayse, Maddie Musto, Addie Orick, Naomi Owens, Maggie Shope, Brynn Stewart, Abby Stolly, Lucy Taylor, Isabella Cason-Noland, Alli Kline, and coaches Mark Kenney, Dian Mayse, and Steve Stolly.
Past team members included Kailey Nonnenman, Hannah Parslow, Amelia Hess, Claire Youker, and Mary Yuhasz. Past coaches included Matt Hess and John Musto.
And as always, a BIG "Thank You!" to the St. Charles parents who took care of the equipment, distributed uniforms, filled in at practices, got the girls to their practices and games on-time, and washed those stinky uniforms!
Great job CHARGERS!
