PDHS SPORTS – Taking a look at December athletics!

During a December 4th matchup, eleven out of fifteen players made the score sheet in their 10-2 win over North Park. Sydney Kipp led the way with 5 goals and 2 assists, Rowan Worrall with 2 goals and 3 assists and Reese Halliday and Faith Smith potting a goal each
