On Monday, the 7th grade girls soccer team defeated Norristown by a score of one to zero. The back line of Marlem, Victoria, Jolenny and Alice were very aggressive to the ball and kept Norristown from scoring. Mia Murdock made an incredible save to record the shut out. As midfielders, Aubrey, Piper, Daniela and Maanvi supported our offense and defense. And the forward line of Mia, Ziri, Adelaide and Fayha moved the ball well leading to Fayha's goal. Great job, Team!!!

It was a beautiful day for an amazing cross country race against the Phoenixville Phantoms! All runners should feel accomplished as every athlete finished the entire 3km race. You could feel (and hear) the team spirit and morale (from both teams) as they cheered each other on through the finish line. Special shoutout to the following runners for being within the top ten finishers in their race: Boys: Caleb R, Billy M, Jeff C, Tyler W, Matthew D. Girls: Stella G, Hayden B, Emma L, Mariah M, Kaela F, Maggie C, and Blair P. It was definitely a good day for numbers. Way to show up team!

Georgia, Gabby, Olivia and Jordyn were tough at the net. Stunning sets from Reese, Natalie, and Olivia. The best play of the game was a ridiculous save from Reese off the net.

The 7th grade Boys soccer team has put together a 2 game winning streak after defeating visiting Norristown on Monday. Miles Kennett had the lone goal in the first half to put the Vikings up one - nil as he volleyed a loose ball into the back of the net. The Vikings fought off constant pressure throughout the second half as keeper Lucas Seaner recorded his second career shut-out with a 10 save performance. Denny Pitts helped keep the Vikings offense on the attack throughout the game. The Vikings travel to Pottsgrove on Friday looking to continue their streak. SKOL!

Last Friday, the Eighth grade boys’ soccer team traveled to Perk Valley West. Upper Merion got the first goal thanks to a shot from Jesus R. In the second half Perk Valley was able to score two goals. The game ended in a victory for Upper Perk. Then yesterday , the 8th grade boys team played Norristown at home. Again Jesus R. got Upper Merion the lead. Norristown then fought back with a goal of their own. With the game tied, Maaz B. scored on a free kick from 25 yards out. He then followed that up with his second goal of the game on a beautiful chip pass from Hernie R. The game ended with a 3 to 1 score and the 8th grade boys first victory of the season. Every player contributed to a true team victory. Rayaan, It must have been the haircut!

The Lady Vikings had yet another tremendous win. Incredible serves from Grace C, Abby D, Ceci G, Aubrey L, Arwen J, Rebecca R, Elonna M, Danielle T, and Jennab W. Along with outstanding back row defense from Rebecca R, Danielle T, Arwen J, Ceci G, Lauren H, and Jennah W. Not to mention the wonderful sets from Abby D and Jennab W.

The Boys 7th Grade soccer team officially opened their season on Wednesday with a 7-0 victory over the Bears of Boyertown East. The rain cleared, a ref appeared and the Vikings seared the back of the net as Henrique, Andrew and Henrique again, were the Viking scorers in the first half. The second half saw Andrew score again on a header from a pass by Henrique, Luke made the most of his opportunity moving up from defense to score and Ian closed out the game with his first goal of the season. In net, Lucas kept a clean sheet between the pipes. The Vikings defense stifled the Bears offense all day as Luke, Nathaniel, Ben, Tommy, Ray and Austin owned the defensive end of the field. Kris, Denny, Miles, Joey, and Nataneal control the midfield and kept the pressure on the Bears defense all match. In what could only be described as a true team effort, the Vikings put practice into play and walked away with their first victory of the season. SKOL! 

The lady Vikings defeated PV West on Wednesday. The Vikings had great serves from Ceci G, Abby D, Danielle T, Arwen J, Grace C, and Aubrey L.

Outstanding hits from Danielle T, Ceci G, Elonna M, Aubrey L, Ella B, Grace C, and Lauren H. Great Job Vikings on another amazing win!!
