SJS Wins G.I.L. Soccer Championship
Congratulations to SJS Soccer Team who beat St. Thomas on November 16th 1-0 in a very exciting game to win their 6th straight G.I.L. Championship.
The St. Joseph School soccer team recently captured their 6th consecutive GIL Soccer title by defeating St. Thomas of Bloomfield 1-0 in a hard fought game. St. Joseph dominated play throughout the first half of play but the St. Thomas goalkeeper made several outstanding saves to keep the game scoreless. The Blue Jays came out strong again to begin the second half and about 5 minutes into the half, Stephen Matthews scored with a strong shot on goal from 30 yards away. The defense was strong throughout and limited St. Thomas to very few chances for the remainder of the game to secure the win.
A big Thank You to the soccer coaches - Greg Shannhan and Scott Douglas!
