Girls varsity soccer coach Dan Clarke says his team is delighted to have the opportunity to play against other schools: “We have held on to the hope that, if we followed the protocols in place and did things the right way, we would be able to play games against other schools. The team has performed tremendously, under some difficult circumstances, and has earned this opportunity. I think all the coaches and players have been looking forward to this moment, and it’s going to be so fun to see our student-athletes back in Storm uniforms representing St. Luke’s.”
A reminder that there are significant limitations on spectators this fall. St. Luke’s is allowing only one spectator per student-athlete participant. An additional note on spectator limitations is that schools have vastly different rules related to visitors on their campus. In some cases, it may be that spectators are not permitted for select road events.
The St. Luke’s Athletic Department is working on live streaming as many of these events as possible. Follow the Storm on Twitter and Instagram, and Facebook for all the latest news and updates.
