Nate Lisanti

Nate is the goalie for Aquinas Academy. He has made several key saves all season, including a penalty shot save against St John. If he does not make the save the score would be 4-3 and who knows how it would end. With the save, Aquinas won 5-2.

Brandan Miller

Brandan is the center forward for Aquinas Academy. He scored a hat -trick in a 5-2 win over St John and all four goals in a 4-1 win over St Mary helping Aquinas improve to 4-2 on the season.

I would like to nominate Jonathan Lynch as player of the week for his
superior goalkeeping effort against St. Bernadette and St. Maurice over
the weekend. He made several key saves in a 1-0 win over St. Bernadette
to keep the shutout and secure the win. His phenomenal goalkeeping
against St. Maurice made sure his Aquinas Academy team still has a
chance at making the playoffs as his team won 3-1. He gave up a late
goal after his team scored three but without his fine play throughout
the game his team would have been in trouble. Congratulations Jonathan!

I would like to nominate Matt Lang from Aquinas as player of the week. He has played goalie in most games this year but as a field player in today's game he scored 5 and assisted on one as Aquinas beat Alpha 6-2.

I would also like to vote Sean Allen (Aquinas Academy) as player of the week for varsity. Sean scored a hat trick in both games this weekend. He helped lead the team to victory in two great games.

I would like to nominate Sean Allen as player of the JV week. His
strong performance in goal against Madonna and his point blank save in
the first half allowed the Crusaders to walk away with a tie instead of
a loss.

I would like to nominate Jack Dyro as player of the week for varsity.
His solid performance up front and his two goals against Madonna helped
boost the Crusaders to a 3-0 victory and a winning season.

Player of the Week:
I would like to nominate Stephen Veres as player of the week for his
tremendous midfield play and for scoring two goals against Mt. Gallitzin
to ensure Aqunas Academy earned a draw despite falling behind twice.
One of his goals was off a direct kick and went in the upper 90
(unstoppable).

I would like to nominate the entire Aquinas Academy varsity soccer team as the "players of the week" for their outstanding performance all season, especially in their games May 20th and May 21st. They finished their undefeated season with 7 wins and one tie. They have come together as a team and have outplayed their opponents by outscoring them 29-6 and finishing with five shutouts. Congratulations team on a great regular season.

I would also like to nominate Chuck Dolan from Aquinas Academy as player of the week for the varsity team. Chuck made several key saves, several on break aways, to ensure that Aquinas Academy remained undefeated through five games. Without his solid performance in net, the outcome of the game would have been quite different as Aquinas scored only one goal to win 1-0.

I would like to nominate James Conklin as JV player of the week for
Aquinas Academy for his three goals against St. Bonaventure lifting
Aquinas to its third win of the season.
I would also like to nominate Ricky Minno as Varsity player of the week for Aquinas Academy for his superior performance against Holy Trinity on Saturday. He unselfishly set-up the first goal and scored four in the Crusaders 5-0 victory over Holy Trinity. He also tallied two goals against St. Bonaventure in Aquinas' 5-0 victory on Sunday.

This week's "Players of the Week" go to James Conklin from the JV team for his two goals against St. Elizabeth and his great defending in the last ten minutes to guarantee Aquinas Academy won their first game 3-1.
Also Jacob Schirra for scoring the lone goal against St. Elizabeth to help the Crusaders win 1-0 off of header from a corner kick in the final seconds of the first half in the varsity game.

This week's "Players of the Week" go to Jack Dyro of the Aquinas Academy JV. Jack's two goals lifted Aquinas Academy over Holy Trinity. This improves their record to 3-2.
Also Jacob Schirra of the Aquinas Academy Varsity for his outstanding hustle and three goals that helped Aquinas
Academy beat Holy Trinity in the Varsity game. The entire Aquinas
Academy team played a phenomenal game to make sure his goals stood.

This week's "Player of the Week" is Alexandria Zozos who plays for Providence Heights Alpha School Varsity. Ale(for short), with the outstanding play from her teammates, boosted her team to a win over St. John the Baptist, in the season opener, 3-2, by scoring her first ever 'HAT TRICK'. Ale is an 8th grader who has played for the Alpha Eagles, both seasons, since she was in 3rd grade.

This weeks "Player of the Week" is Michael J Boyle of St Alexis Varsity.
Michael is the only 8th grader, on the team, and through his outstanding performance on both offense and defense lead the team to their first victory. Michael scored 2 of St. Alexis' 4 goals and made many key defensive saves. Under extremely difficult weather and field conditions Michael helped to keep his teammates motivated and focused with his aggressiveness and good sportsmanship on the field.

This weeks "Player of the Week" is Matt Marasco from St. Elizabeth. Matt's the team leader and captain for the St. Elizabeth varsity soccer team. He led the team back from a 0-1 deficit at halftime, on Saturday 10/23 vs. St. Sylvester’s, to spearhead a victory for St. Elizabeth, by scoring 3 goals in the second half. He also displayed the highest level of sportsmanship, as he always does, by walking away from would could have been an unpleasant situation.

His consistent team focus, character, and lack of a “me first” attitude make him deserving of this award. He is the heart and soul of the St. Elizabeth varsity soccer team.

This weeks "Player of the Week" is Gage Virgi from Holy Trinity. Gage plays many different positions on the field and always has a positive attitude. He always gives 100% during the games and is very respectful of his teammates and coaches. Congratulations Gage!
