In the CISAA Semi-Finals they defeated Crescent School 4-3 and then matched up against a tough UCC team for the finals and the Vikings came up short. The team represented well at High School Nationals. They had wins against Riverdale and Berkshire and finished 6th in Division IV. The team also enjoyed a trip to Cleveland to play University School and MICDS. Jacob Stoffman ’24 was the Most Valuable Player. Sun Jae Nigalye ’25 and Joey Tuber ’25 received the Coaches Awards.
