FALL SPORTS WRAP-UP
We are so excited to share these updates from the NEST+m Athletics Department with our entire NEST+m community – and we welcome everyone to cheer on our student athletes at upcoming games!
Amazing fall season by our Middle Grades sports teams! Congratulations to all who participated and a huge thank you to all of our coaches for supporting and guiding our student-athletes this fall!
MIDDLE GRADES MSAL (Middle School Athletics League)
Girls Soccer led by Coach Zucker finished 2-4 which is a huge success since we weren't sure if we would have enough players for most of our games. We hope to build on this season for more fun and team cohesiveness next year!
Boys Soccer led by Coach Sullivan finished 9-1, with a huge regular season win against rival Baruch, who always fields competitive teams. Great season boys and we can't wait to give it our best shot again next year.
Flag Football led by Coach Hohl and Coach Pinou finished 1-3 but again, with limited players, we had a great season and got outside to enjoy some games. Best of luck for next year.
Girls Volleyball led by Coach Zhang finished 5-2 with a strong team growing and improving together. We have a spring volleyball season where we hope to continue our improvements and find the same success.
