Spirit Shows Through Weather Even though the weather was cool and the rain came down on a dreary Homecoming day, the teams played, the cheerleaders cheered, and the fans showed up. The day started off at 9:00 a.m. with a girls volleyball 3-0 victory over Blake. The girls soccer game started under cloudy skies at 10:00 a.m. and soon the rain came down. Some fans took refuge from the rain between periods to watch the volleyball game in the gym. As the rain came down, the girls soccer team could not spark a win against a tough Benilde team and lost 1-3. The girls soccer game was followed by the guys soccer game, which received the worst of the day's rain.
