They slid past Seton by a score of 8-45, 45-5, 'io-'ld in the regional opener but ended their season with a loss to Thornwood 'li-45, 'I2- 45 in the regional final.

Coach Kim Herman summed up the season with, i'AIthough our record may not have reflected a win- ning season, we were very successful.
