Santa Maria Catholic Church held its first CYO night at Miramonte High School. All players and coaches were invited to attend the "Lady Mats" game against Alhambra on January 30.
After the game several Santa Maria girls joined the Lady Mats in the team room for a question and answer session. The Santa Maria girls were pleased to learn that every Lady Matador player had played on a CYO team and most played for our hometown parish, Santa Maria, including Anderson, Johanson, Katz, McDonald, K. Miller, N. Miller, Reid and Rosenzwieg. Christenson played for Catholic Community of Pleasanton (CCOP) and Golden played for St. Bonaventure.
Santa Maria players are gearing up for the playoffs and Diocese Championships, now knowing that two Miramonte players, N. Miller & K. Miller, both played on Santa Maria CYO Diocese champion teams.
The CYO girls told the Lady Mats that they "can't wait to become Lady Mats themselves."
In the meantime, the players asked this year's squad to sign jerseys, shoes, hats and game programs.
Then, when it was time to go, the Lady Mats and CYO players huddled for one final cheer together.
