The EMS athletic program had another successful year! Each season provided life-long memories and learning opportunities for our student athletes. Sarah Drooger and Ryan Slonaker (above, right) signed letters of intent to Division 1 colleges. Sarah will continue her soccer career at Virginia Commonwealth University and Ryan will be playing golf at Virginia Tech.<\/p>\n
Just a few weeks ago, our 4×800 relay team (above, left) won the VISAA D2 Championship Race for the third year in a row! Team members included Adam Rhodes, Calvin Bixler, Jedrek Sneary, and Luga Samson. Luga finished second in the 800m race, setting a school record with a time of 1:56.41.
\nSpeaking of records, Sarah Drooger set the all-time scoring record for Varsity Girls Soccer. Over her career, she scored 109 goals and had 44 assists for 262 career points.<\/p>\n
Andrew Gascho, Varsity Girls Soccer Head Coach, had his 100th career win (above, center). As the heart of the athletic department, Mr Gascho\u2019s influence extends far beyond the scoreboard, leaving a lasting impact on the lives of our student athletes.<\/p>\n
