Aardvark Athletics: Week of October 16, 2017

On Monday, the Boys’ JV Soccer team tied Pinecobble School 6-6 in a hard fought-game. The Aardvark squad came back from one-point deficits on four separate occasions and actually took the lead for a short period of time. Raymond M had three goals, Charlie P scored twice, and Alec D added one more. Nacho TP and Alex T each played half of the game in goal, making five and six saves respectively. Nick C played extremely well on defense, as did Sam R. Chanina K also had a strong game. The Academy boys had an impressive 21 shots on goal.

The Girls’ Soccer team defeated Springfield Commonwealth Academy 8-1 on Tuesday behind strong games from Elaina G-B (two goals) and Izzy B (one goal). Esmé M-R, Eliza B, Nellie B-O, and Greta M. also scored.

On Wednesday, the middle school soccer players mixed teams with a depleted Hartsbrook middle school team. Special thanks to all the players involved for being willing to play on any team in order make the game more competitive. Attticus R and Nick F scored goals, while Gwen H had a solid afternoon in goal. The two teams, both likely with full rosters, will play again next week at Hartsbrook.

On Wednesday, the Boys’ Varsity defeated Paulo Friere Social Justice Charter School 3-0. Hendrik P (2) and Kyle N scored goals for the Aardvarks in the team’s final regular season game.
