Junior Varsity Football: 6 Wins, 2 Losses
Coach: Mike Riordan

The JV Football team had a great season. After tough losses in their first two games, the team charged back by winning 4 straight. That effort earned the team a spot in league playoffs and ended up 2nd place in their division.


Varsity Football: 1 Win, 7 Losses
Coach: Pat Kenny

The 2007 season was a building year for the Varsity Team. Our young team was out-matched by the physical size and strength of other league teams with a higher ratio of older players.
