Three Louisville area teams traveled north to Philadelphia this past weekend to compete in the prestigious Max Preps Field Hockey Invitational. Teams from around the country competed, especially those teams from the Northeast and Atlantic coast where field hockey is especially strong. Sacred Heart went 0-3, playing three games in less than 22 hours, one of which was OT. Assumption went 1-2, and Manual 3-0.

The scoring confirms that these three teams are competitive with the best of the best, with Manual showing why they are ranked #1 in Kentucky.

SHA and Manual will play Tuesday in a rubber match between them, SHA having won by a 3-0 score, and Manual winning 1-0 in the Apple Tournament final. Should be a great game to be played at SHA at 6:45. Freshman and JV games precede the varsity match.

Sacred Heart won the rubber match 2-0 vs Manual last night. I didn't hear about the younger girls games.

Congrats to both teams for having great seasons!

SHA won both the JV and Freshmen games.
