As we are nearing the end of the spring athletic season it is important to honor Mercy athletes for all of their hard work. Mercy’s five spring sports which are currently competing are Lacrosse, Softball, Swim, Track, and Gymnastics.

Mercy’s lacrosse team played Hillsdale last Friday and scored six points but unfortunately lost to Hillsdale. On Monday they came back stronger and won against Crystal Springs Uplands School. Later that week on Wednesday, they also played Harker, and on Friday they will play against Castilleja. It has been an eventful week for the Lacrosse team!
