Districts Review
The SJA varsity cross country team wrapped up their season with a 6th place finish out of 14 teams at the district meet held Saturday at Strongsville High School. Quite possibly the most competitive district in the state, the Jags were up against some of the best teams in Northeast Ohio. Only 4 teams and individuals in the top 16 places qualified to the Tiffin Regional. For the first time in at least 12 years SJA will have no competitors move out of the district competition.
For the second week in a row, senior Jessica Sirchen led SJA to the wire finishing in 26th place. The SJA harriers packed in closely behind with Rachel McGuire 29th, Mary Kate Chambers 32nd, Alesha Vovk 36th, and freshman birthday-girl Mallory Fahey 39th.
The JV team wraps up their season at the Walsh Jesuit Warrior last chance meet on Monday, October 24th. Start times are 4pm for frosh/soph and 5pm for juniors/seniors.

Senior night a soggy success!
The rains have been here all along, but even 40 days and 40 nights weren't enough to dappen the spirits of the SJA cross country team as they celebrated their first ever Senior Night AND home meet!
SJA's JV squad battled Mentor's JV team to an actual tie 28 points to 28 points. Mentor won on the tie breaker by having the better 6th runner. Junior Helen Steve and sophomore Maddie Zimmerman were the first Jags to cross the line in 2nd and 3rd place. Jill Bresnahan moved up nicely during the race to finish as 3rd Jaguar and 5th overall. Senior Maggie Boyer ran one of her best races of the year to finish 7th overall. Junior Jessica Bresnahan finished 11th overall to round out SJA's scoring.
It has been a great season and we are all very fortunate to have had the seniors be part of it! Along with captains Mary Kate Chambers and Kara Hurley, the following seniors have been part of a very special family; Maggie Boyer, Sam Riley, Grace Harter, Summer Roberts, Maddy Lanning, Kristina Jackson, Kayley Dunn, Claire Konys, Bridget Fibbi, Julia Swit,and Jessica Sirchen.
Results are posted in the right-hand margin of this site.

Ohio Independent Schools Champs Review
Massillon High hosted the Ohio Independent Schools Championships for teams that don't have conference affiliations in the week leading up to the district tournament. To provide a little inter-team competition, SJA split their power into 3 evenly matched teams all running during the same race instead of just focusing on the regular results. Because of this, Laurel School won the title, but when looking at results it is obvious SJA had the best team by placing 4th through 9th.
Team "C", also known as "Powers" was the best placing team for SJA, followed by the "A" team then the "C". The top individuals regardless of team were in a different order than normal. Crossing the line first for SJA was senior Jessica Sirchen. She was followed by senior Mary Kate Chambers, sophomores Alesha Vovk and Rachel McGuire, then junior Emily Bauer. The next four were freshman Mallory Fahey, then three juniors; Jill Bresnahan, Bridget Egan, and Jessica Bresnahan.
There were many good performances in the rest of the race for SJA, including the Jaguar of the Meet performance by junior Mary Bridget Waters.
The results can be found linked at the right side of this website.
SJA next runs at the First Ever Home SJA Meet next Wednesday October 19th at South Mastick Picnic Area in the Rocky River Reservation. It will be senior night.
