Soccer Honors Seniors
You'll be hard-pressed to find a group of student athletes more responsible for changing a program than these ladies on the St. Mary's Women's Soccer Team along with their coach, Brittany Heist, over the past four years. These seven exceptional players, students, and people have won countless games, a league championship, been named to All-Catholic and All-WNY teams, and have made St. Mary's Soccer a powerhouse. With three D1 commits who are also National Honor Society students (This team boasts five NHS students total. We know... woah!), the sky is the limit for all of these ladies.
Thank you to Shae O'Rourke, Charlie Pawli, Mia Moore, Gabby Gambino, Hailey Miller, Ava Hickok, and Jayne Zygaj for their hard work and dedication to the program over the past 4 years. Once a Lancer, always a Lancer!
