Scrimmage vs Loyola-Blakefield
February 25, 2008 | Leave a Comment
On Saturday, March 1, the varsity will scrimmage Loyola-Blakefield (Md.) at Catholic University, on Catholic’s new Sport Turf field. The teams have the turf from 3—6 p.m. The scrimmage will likely feature combined drills and controlled game situations from 3—4:30 and then a live scrimmage from 4:30—6 p.m. The late start will ensure that the boys taking the SAT will not be affected. Coach Lester will finalize details later in the week for boys traveling to the scrimmage from the SAT (the bus may have to depart before all of the boys have returned from the test, especially those players who need extended time). If your son is taking the SAT and you will be able to take him and other players to Catholic for the scrimmage, please contact Coach Lester. Also, as we are the guests of Catholic, which was been gracious in accommodating us, please observe the directions and parking stipulations below.
Directions from St Alban’s to DuFour Athletics Center main turf field: Take Massachusetts Ave towards downtown to North Capitol – Go left on North Capitol going north – after going under 2 tunnels you will come to Michigan Ave, NE – Go right on Michigan Ave – Catholic University will be a few blocks up on the left side – Pass the Shrine and go left on John McCormack Rd, NE – DuFour Athletics will be 1/2 mile on the left side – Park in the lot and enter the building – Field is up the stairs and out the glass doors.
