Family Night / Senior Night

February 9, 2007. History was made as the St. Genevieve Gymnasium erupted in a deafening roar. For the first time since I can remember, the Gym was packed with an enthusiastic crowd that came to support the Valiants. The fundamentals of school spirit have changed quite a bit this year, with support coming from all over the valley. Students, teachers, parents, and friends of St. Genevieve High School all gathered together last Friday night for the sole purpose of watching our amazing athletes, and dance teams, do what they do best.


Although the Freshman and Junior Varsity Basketball teams were defeated by Bellarmine Jefferson, our Varsity boys walked out triumphunt with a score of 62 points to 58. That was not the only victory that night, during the first quarter of the Varsity game it was announced that our Varsity Soccer Team defeated Bell Jeff with a score of 13-0.


Victory over Bellarmine Jefferson wasn't the only accomplishment we achieved on Friday. The tension between the two crowds was palpable that night. As a community, we conducted ourselves in a way that enables us to truly stand tall and say, "We are a school of Character." We proved to ourselves that the Pillars of Character would not crack or crumble to wrecking balls of arrogance and disrespect.


Friday night was also a very special occassion for senior athletes. All senior athletes that played in the Winter Sports - Girls and Boys Basketball and Girls and Boys Soccer - were thanked and commended for their participation and work they have done for our school.
