However, Wednesday was the day that will go down in history for the fantastic result that the men’s soccer team, under coach Marian, achieved in an away game against Sapienza. They won by a stunning 7-1, the biggest victory in the 16-year history of the Gladiators.

Both trips had their challenges with steep stairs, rocky cliffs, and the hot sun, but were rewarding with beautiful views and dips in the Mediterranean Sea. Thank you to all the students, staff, and amazing host for both weekends…they were incredible!

Week 7: Lucky Number Seven

This week proved that sometimes luck is not on your side but also that luck isn’t everything. Skill, determination, and your willingness to give it everything you have is just as, if not more important. We had a few surprising losses this week but also some big wins that we are so proud of. Let’s give it up for our Gladiators, on to week 8!
