Hack Soccer
The Hack soccer team, affectionately nicknamed “the squad on the quad”, closed out the season remaining the only undefeated soccer team on campus. Competing in almost 20 “caps,” or games, this accomplishment is nothing to balk at. Last week, Hack took down Boys’ JV Soccer in a 4-1 victory for the ages.
