Sports Wrap-Up Due to COVID-19, the spring sports season was cut short. However, in the short time the teams were together, they demonstrated a toughness and dedication to their sports. Each Warrior team would have been a solid contender in their leagues by the end of the season. I was really looking forward to our spring season. Thanks to all of our athletes for their hard work and determination. You should be proud of your efforts." Mark McDaniel SMES Athletic Director

BASKETBALL The A-girls coaches, Susan Murphy and Zach Leitgeb, taught the team new skills and strategies. The team dominated on the court and won six of their 11 conference games. They ended the season strong in a tight playoff game against Davis Academy. The B-girls basketball team completed their season with a 7-1 record and placed second in the MAAC B-league tournament. Coach Amanda Walker and Coach Valentina Lee worked hard with the girls all season, and it paid off. They had success and lots of fun along the way.
A-BOYS BASKETBALL
The C-girls basketball team played hard and had fun all season long with Coach Sarah Taylor. The players improved their skills in all aspects of the game, came together as a team as the season progressed and finished strong with a big win against Epstein. The A-boys basketball team was young this year and had a slow start to the season. After Christmas break, they went on a roll and finished with a 6-6 record overall, earning a spot in the playoffs. They faced The Museum School in the first round and fought hard the whole way, but unfortunately got knocked out. Coaches Rob Harris and Michael Albanese were proud of the boys’ efforts this year. The B-boys basketball team was “full of awesome people,” said Coach Mark McDaniel. They worked hard and improved tremendously over the season. After a slow start, the boys won four games in a row and dominated the end of the season. Every member played a ton of minutes and contributed to the team’s success. The C-boys basketball team went 4-1, with some close and exciting games. All the boys improved their play over the season and worked well as a team. Coach Spence Camp and Coach Ricky Brown were very impressed with everyone’s effort throughout the season.

A-GIRLS BASKETBALL
SWIMMING St. Martin’s swim team competed in three meets this year. The swimmers performed well, placing in each of the competitions, despite having fewer participants than any other schools. There were a couple of top finishers, and many of the Warrior swimmers broke their personal best. Hopefully, more swimmers will compete next year and continue the excellence!
