Weekly Update: Monday, October 4th 2021

Dear Families,

Good morning! Congrats to everyone involved in a big week and weekend of Baccalieu Collegiate sports! Please see the following updates for this coming week. If I have missed anything please reply-all to this email.

The Baccalieu Collegiate Senior Girls Soccer team won a 3rd straight SSNL 3A Girls Regional Championship Banner on Saturday in Bay Roberts. The girls lost a tough game to start the tournament against Crescent Collegiate (0-2), but then went undefeated for the rest of the day, to win gold! Beating Laval High School (1-0), then Crescent Collegiate (1-0) in overtime of the gold medal game! Shealyn Barnes had both of the Predator's goals, scoring the game winner midway through the second overtime of the finals! Emily Barnes was named the tournament's Most Valuable Player! The girls are scheduled to play in the SSNL 3A Girls Soccer Provincial Championships later this month, October 22nd-24th, in St. Lawrence on the Burin Peninsula. 

Baccalieu Collegiate Boys Represent in Softball. “We don't stop here, the boys want to keep going. We were very proud of them! They were sportsmanlike and played a good game. They played well, very few errors, and the other coaches said their bats are on point. Fielding will get better and we will start to settle players into their positions. They scored runs every game, but not enough to keep up with the experience and bats of the other schools. In due time…”
