Sacred Hearts Academy’s Lower School basketball team remains undefeated, winning 10 games this division II Catholic Schools League (CSL) season.

Lower School’s basketball team remains undefeated

This year, senior Jenica Wong became the first student from Sacred Hearts Academy to play football. She represents the all-girls Catholic school on PAC-5s football team. Her coaches say she is treated the same as the boys and that her dedication and hard work earned her playing time.

The first actual game I played…we were versing Saint Louis School (SLS) and up by 10 points,” she said. “Toward the end of the game, the special team’s coach grabbed me by the collar and told me, ‘hit somebody,’ and I went with that in mind.”

While she didn’t make any plays that day, PAC-5 won the game against SLS, with a score of 10-0.

“This was not only a win for PAC-5 but for the stigma that ‘girls dont belong’ or ‘girls cant play,’” the 17-year-old said about the October game.
