Beating St Joseph's at our Homecoming game to finish the season with a 5-1 record!

What a fun night for everyone with our Holy Family Cheerleaders cheering and performing. The 8th grade football players were recognized before the game and we celebrated the 8th grade cheerleaders at half time. What a blessing to play under the Savio lights amongst our wonderful community.
