ATHLETICS
Tower Hill’s boys’ soccer team took the state title in the Division II championship game against Indian River. Strong winds in the Hillers’ favor contributed to an impressive four goals in the first half by Andrew Cercena ‘17 (2), Drew Manning ‘17 and Malcolm Johnson ‘18. Tough defense and great goalkeeping by Bo Anderson ‘18 kept the Indians at bay in the second half for a 4-2 final score. Congratulations to the entire team and coach Chris Aitken!
Tower Hill’s exceptional field hockey program took the Hillers to the state final at UD’s Rullo Stadium to face a very competitive Delmar team. The Hillers fought hard but came up short on offense for a 3-0 finish. The team ended the season with a remarkable 17-2 record and second place in the state.
Junior Hudson Pepper, the fastest cross country runner in Tower Hill’s history, finished ninth in the DIAA State Championships. The volleyball team finished a stellar season with a win in the runner-up match against Archmere. The girls swept the match and earned third place in the state. Pictured are Daysha Shamlin ‘17, Ashleigh Brady ‘17 and Josephine Thrasher ‘17. Harry Quimby ‘17 (#3) will play for the blue team in the DFRC Blue-Gold Football game on Saturday, June 17, 2017 at Delaware Stadium. Pictured with Steve, Lea ‘86 and Charlie Quimby ‘17.
