Lenten MeditationMay our love grow each day during our

Lenten journey. There is so much yet tolearn, to examine, to heal, to renew.

We have a sense of the patterns and asense of the graces we are asking for, as

well as the ways God is working in us.

We want to be ready and our Lord wantsus to be confident. So we keep asking

and we keep giving thanks, throughoutthe day.

“I am the Savior of all people,”says the Lord.

“Whatever their troubles, I will answertheir cry, and I will always be their Lord.”

Amen

The 69th Annual St. Augustine Parochial School All County Championship

Over a two week period, the NDA Varsity Boys played their hearts out in the Saints tournament. Withan easy first round win over Holy Trinity, the boys next faced eventual champion St. Therese. The boyskept it close, but the size and strength of St. Therese was too much. The boys then battled through the

consolation bracket with wins over St. Pat’s of Carlsbad and St. Mike’s of Poway. With those wins theboys faced St. James of Solana Beach for the 3rd place championship. With their trademark defensive

pressure, along with a barrage of three pointers, the boys secured the victory. Congratulations to CoachNolen, Coach K, and Coach Cariquitan, for all their efforts this year.

Special congratulations to Teddy Fogliani, who was named to the Elite 8 of the Saints tournament.Congratulations also to McCabe Moyer on making the all-tournament team.

Girls Varsity SoccerTuesday the NDA Girls’ Varsity soccer played in a thrilling Semi-Final match against St. John’s of Encini-tas. Having lost to the previously undefeated St. John’s team earlier this year 5-0, the Dolphins were a

bit unsure of their chances. With some incredible defensive pressure by Morgan Pack, Zoe Manos,Mackenna Diltz, Victoria Jorge, and the rest of the Dolphins defense, St. John’s was held in check. On theoffensive end, the constant attacking by Ava Simone and Kaylin King gave Claire Curran opportunities tomake plays against the St. John defense. Claire made the most of her opportunities with two goals and

many more shots on goal. As the clock ran down in the second half, the excitement of the 2-1 win washard to contain. With a crowd of over 70 NDA supporters and their teammates, the celebration was on.Today, Thursday, NDA will travel to Nativity for a 3:30pm game which will decide the Champion of the

North County Parochial League. Come support Coach Curran, Coach Truong, and the Varsity Girls.Go Dolphins!
