Fall Athletics in Full Swing

The fall athletics teams continue a great start to the season with our Varsity Volleyball at 26-4, Cross Country runners consistently performing at a high level, and the Football team getting a big win in their first home game of the season.

Our Varsity Volleyball team continues to roll the competition and are now at 26-4 on the season. They lead the district in wins, and had a great showing at the FAST tournament last weekend, going 2-2 against a mix of 5A and 6A TAPPS competition.

At the Houston Christian Invitational on September 14, eight of the fourteen Frassati Catholic runners posted season best times and one tied her season-best. Leading the boys Varsity team was Thomas Langley who finished two miles in 11:27.  Other top performers for the boys included Mark Morrison with a time of 11:39 and Nathan Bartsch with a time of 13:11.

Right on her heels was senior Izabella Vallejo in 4th with a time of 12:28. Grace Delahoussaye finished 12th and earned her first medal of the season. Cross Country heads to the Second Baptist Soaring Eagles Meet on Saturday, September 21.
