St. Edward’s Soccer Challenge – 2018
On Saturday, September 22, the Saint Edwards Knights of Columbus Council held a penalty kick soccer competition to determine our region’s representatives. Forty-three boys and girls between the ages of 9 and 14 kicked over 600 penalty kicks! In the end, we were able to select 6 boys and 4 girls to represent Saint Edwards at the state level at West Point in early November. Well done to all the participants and congratulations to those who will be advancing! — Grand Knight John Ward
