PERFECT. The Lady Irish Softball Team returned home on Wednesday, defeating the Midland Timberwolves, 13-0! The Lady Irish got off to a slow start but did a nice job of staying calm and adjusting. Tessa Krull got the offense going with a home run in the 4th inning and the team hit well from then on. Tessa was also dominant in the circle, throwing a PERFECT GAME on only 62 pitches. The Lady Irish will be back in action again TONIGHT for a conference match-up against the Woodland Warriors. Great job, ladies! #IrishPride ☘️

WALK-OFF. The Fighting Irish Baseball program swept the Somonauk Bobcats in thrilling fashion on Saturday! The Varsity team showed some serious grit, battling back from a 4-run deficit to enter the 7th only trailing 5-6. After loading the bases, the Irish found themselves down to their last out before junior Tommy Watkins delivered a CLUTCH 2-run line drive to right field to cap off the comeback, 7-6! The JV team followed suit, overcoming a 5-run deficit of their own to walk it off on a wild pitch, 8-7. What a day for the Fighting Irish! #RollShrocks ☘️

On Sunday, our Irish IMPACT team hosted a pancake breakfast fundraiser to support our local Packs for Pals program. The pancake breakfast was a huge success, with $2,492 being raised to support Packs for Pals! That money will support the summer Packs for Pals program, which is run here at SHS, and will also help fund the program for the 2026-2027 school year. The pancake breakfast would not have been possible without SHS faculty, staff, students, and community members. A special thank you to Seneca BP for their generous donations, RISE, NHS, Student Council, FFA, FCCLA, HOSA, and the maintenance crew! #TheSenecaWay ☘️

THANK YOU to the Jason Clearwater Fund for their generous donation to the Lady Irish Softball program! 🥎
