They placed third in the Delco Championships (narrowly missing 2nd) in a talent packed Delaware County, defeating Catholic League powerhouse O’Hara along the way. Despite losing outstanding sophomore Julianne Garvey with a season ending injury, this team was nothing short of amazing meet after meet. They are young and THEY WILL BE BACK!
