ATHLETICS
- SOCCER: Yesterday the soccer team played against our arch rival East Hills. It was a tough first half battle. The Hornets drew first blood with an amazing goal by Shem Mokaya with an assist by Issac Garcia. At half time, the Hornets were down 1 to 2. With the start of the 2nd half, Northeast Varsity team was able to get another net in the goal to tie it up 2 to 2. The Hornets played their hearts out, but were unable to keep the Mustangs at bay. The JV also played a tough game but were unable to pull out a win. Good try to both squads. Please come out on Wednesday to support the Northeast Soccer team’s last game home against the Nitschmann Lions.
