On Tuesday, January 24, 2012 8th grader Sydney Zambrotta broke the Long Island Girls Varsity All Time Scoring Record with 63 POINTS in one game! The previous record was 60 points in a game. Sydney is only an Eighth Grader and she plays on our Lady Royals Varsity Team. OSNA tried everything to stop her....even triple teaming her but together with the rest of her teammates she was able to score both from the outside and by "going to the hoop". The girls went on to win the game 77-17 against OSNA. They're defense opened up plenty of opportunities for Sydney to score. The girls play in the IPSALL League and are 3-3 for the season so far.
Sydney is already being scouted by several Division One Schools and even has some commitments already! She is a natural athlete and works super hard. She practices before and after school, 6 days a week and travels with her AAU team in the summer.
Our new Athletic Director Ms. Becky Stevens who is also our Girls Varsity Head Coach has done such a great job with her team this year. They improve each game as they learn the skills that Ms. Stevens learned while she played at LuHi, College and Overseas. She is also fostering lifelong relationships with the girls as they pray and fellowship each day before and after practice and games.
Grace and peace,
Ed
