Congrats to Marvel Rivals team on their 2nd Place Finish!!!

The team played an extremely tight match against McCollum High School in San Antonio, TX. The team fell to the Cowboys in the last few seconds of the game 3-2. While this was not the result we hoped for, we are so, so proud of the team. Congratulations to Seniors Aiden Coursey, Graham Coursey, Penelope Dalcarri, Trevor McKee, and Niko Vlassis. We will miss you so much next year. Sean Clements, Hudson Clough, and Emma Leighty will return to helm the team next year.

The game was casted on STEM_eSports Twitch channel. It was masterfully casted by Seniors Jake Lindhardt and Rayden Neff. Please check out the replay.

Middle School finished their season with strong placings. We are excited for our 8th graders to continue to High School play and look forward to many returning members next year.

ENGLEWOOD -- Railroad ties, lush water hazards and rolling hills. All the makings of an awe-inspiring golf course for any spectator -- but the STEM Girls' Golf team was tasked with instead playing 18 holes of it in Tuesday's Metro League tournament hosted by Kent Denver.

On a Glenmoor Country Club course that would have been as much at home in Augusta, Georgia as in Englewood, Colorado, three Spartans golfers took on the course and more than 30 fellow competitors for a day of country club-style play.

Adhering to a strict dress code and walking the course with custom sand-and-seed buckets, the Spartans found plenty of highlights between drop zones, with several greens on the course so close to water hazards that players throughout the field chipped and even putted their balls into the water throughout the round.

Leah Hunt (118) led STEM with a tidy front-nine score of 54, including back-to-back pars on Holes 5 and 6 (the latter of which was a near-birdie). Mandy Britt (132) and Ryann Venderhye (139) fought valiantly to round out the scoring for the Spartans.

STEM will wrap up its season by hosting the STEM Invitational at Highlands Ranch Golf CLub at 1 pm on May 5th.

The team finished their season with a win at their home field against Arrupe Jesuit Generals, 3-2. This was the final game of the regular season and senior night as well. The team's two seniors, Lizzy Hegemann and Alexis Frey were honored after the game. The win brings the team’s record to 6-7-2, an admirable accomplishment for a team that battled injuries all season.

Boys Volleyball made the State playoffs! The team travelled to Colorado Springs Christian School to play in the Regional round. They lost in three sets to host school Colorado Springs Christian, and then fell in four sets to the third school in the Regional tournament, Alameda International. Despite being the lowest ranked team in the Regional, the Spartans made the other teams work for their victories. One opposing player was overheard saying that they thought the match was going to be way easier than it was. A testament to how hard the Spartans played. Congratulations to the team on a well played season!
