Sleepy Hollow Athletics Home of the Horsemen

The Pioneer League will have their first home game on Wednesday 12/3 at 4:00 in the Sleepy Hollow gym. We hope you will be able to come to this game and many of our other home games.

For those of you not familiar with Pioneer League, it is an interscholastic sports team created for kids with special needs. These kids practice and work hard just as any other team. We are not a “fall” or “winter” team but instead we go all year, learning and practicing 4 different sports. So if soccer is not your thing, we also play floor hockey, basketball and volleyball. But really all we need from you is spirit! (we even have “fan gear” for people who come and support!)

So please come out and show your support for this very special team!

The Modified Girls’ Soccer team enjoyed a very successful season. We were fortunate enough to have thirty-six girls on the team, many playing soccer for the first time and all getting a chance to experience game play. We ended up having a record of: six wins, two losses and two ties. Congratulations go out to all the girls for all their hard work and dedication to the team throughout the season. I am happy to say that all the girls have improved their knowledge and skills in the game of soccer. The future looks great for our Girls’ Soccer Program.

Thank You boys for a great season!

The Sleepy Hollow Lady Horsemen ended their season on a high note on Monday, October 27th by defeating Hasting in all 3 games. Every player contributed with great serves, great passing and hard work. I am so very proud of these girls and hope you will congratulate them on a great season. It has been an honor to coach these girls and I hope to see the 7th graders back next year and I can’t wait to see the 8th graders move up to JV (and maybe Varsity!) next year. Go Hollow! Thanks everyone for all your support!

The SHEDI swim team ended their regular season with an exciting meet against White Plains on Monday, October 27th. It all came down to the last relay and SHEDI managed to hold onto their lead and took the meet 93-90. They finished the season with a dual meet record of 6-3. Congratulations to all SHEDI swimmers including Megan Lindon, Kerry Oliveira, Alexia Boumis, Kristina Figueroa, Maddy McGovern, Lily Sands, and Daniella Carissimo. Good luck to swimmers competiting in Sectionals next week.

 The Sleepy Hollow Boys’ Modified Soccer team played its strongest game of the season as it defeated Dobbs Ferry 3-0 at WI on Monday, October 27th.  The Horsemen played dominating defense led by goalkeeper Nathanael Christian, defenders Sebastian Ardaix, Marc Patino, and Christian Jumbo.  The goals were scored by Chris Loja, Favio Chimbo, and Tom Pardo.  Strong midfield play by Jack Schnog and Chris Lazo helped keep Dobbs Ferry out of the defensive zone and off the scoreboard.  The team is now 3-4-2 with a very strong chance to pull to finish with a winning season against Irvington and Hasting later this week.

Our match on Thursday, October 23rd against Dobbs Ferry was our toughest competition yet. Depsite giving it a great effort, our girls fell short. The Lady Horsemen rallied in game 3 with great serving and passing by Emily Geiger and Marisa Barbera, but we came up short. Hope everyone can join us on Friday, October 24th for our final home game against Ardsley. Thanks again for all your support of this team.
