February 20, 2025 | Media

Still undefeated after three seasons and 1,104 days, Cistercian Varsity Soccer won their hard-fought final match against Houston’s Awty International School to bring home their third SPC Championship in a row. The match went to overtime and ultimately ended in a shoot-out. A fantastic goalkeeper save led to a 5-4 victory! Congratulations to all the players, Coach J.P. Walsh, and his coaching staff for another incredible season. Go Hawks!
