Fall Sports at PC!

Football

The Phoenix Christian Cougars opened the 2018 season having won back-to-back region championships.

PC is in a restructured region this year but the goal is the same! For football, PC is now a part of the “Agua Fria” section. A couple of familiar names (Scottsdale Christian and Arizona Lutheran) are a part of the same section, but the grouping also includes ASU Prep, Santa Cruz Valley and AIA newcomer Heritage Academy (Laveen). PC is set to open region play on Sept. 28 at Santa Cruz Valley.

Head Coach Brian Cole, in his second season at Phoenix Christian, earned his 125th career head coaching victory in a week three win over American Leadership Academy- Ironwood at PC Stadium.

Running back Malik Taylor continues to lead the PC offense. The 5’10”, 180 pound senior has climbed into the 5th place on the all-time PC rushing list with 2,538 yards. He should surpass Rocky Gingg (2004-06, 2,552 yards) this season for the fourth spot all-time on the PC list.

Seniors Chris Aguilar and Ramon Castro are ranked 1 and 2 in Arizona High School football (all divisions) in interceptions through week six. Aguilar has six (including three returned for touchdowns) and Castro five!

Volleyball

Head Coach Terry Sutter is in his second season at PC.

The Cougars won the “2018 Wolfpack Invitational” in Tucson on September 8th defeating host St. Augustine Catholic in straight sets, 25-21 and 25-23.

In the AIA shuffle of 2A teams for 2018-19 and 2019-20, PC is in the “Valley Section” along with Chandler Prep, Leading Edge Academy (Gilbert), Gilbert Classical Academy, Antelope Union and Tempe Prep.

Cheer

Phoenix Christian cheer has gone coed! This diversity on the team played a major role in the team winning a bid to

Nationals from the Fellowship of Christian Cheerleaders organization while attending camp this summer in Fullerton, CA. The competition team will travel January 2-7 to Orlando, FL to participate in FCC Nationals in the coed division.

PC is also in its 4th season of Small Paws, a coed team of almost 30, kindergarten through 5th graders who manage a season of twice a week practices and a game schedule allowing them to cheer for high school and middle school football, HS and MS volleyball, and show off their skills at the homecoming game!

Our MS, JV and varsity teams work hard to decorate lockers, cheer for their classmates, maintain excellence in the classroom, and most importantly work to honor God in all they do. It is because of the gifts He has given that they are able to do what they love!

Cross-Country

This year we have 10 students running cross country, representing several different countries including China and Vietnam. We are still building, but running around 15 miles a week. Near the end of the year, the students will run 20-25 miles a week.

Phoenix Christian Middle School Athletics

Volleyball

Phoenix Christian Prep is a part of the Cactus Christian Schools League. There are 18 schools participating in the league and PC sponsors both A and B teams in the league for 2018. The A team is 1-3 through Sept 21 while the B team is 3-2.

Football

The Cougars had a 24 player turnout for the 6th-8th grade version of Cougar football for 2018. Games are set to begin on Saturdays in October.
