In the preseason rankings the Santa Fe Christian Eagles are ranked 5th in San Diego County. This is one spot better than where the Eagles finished the 2021 season with San Marcos dropping from 5th to 7th, the Eagles moved from 6th in the ranking to 5th to start 2022 season.
Rounding out the top 10 are: 1. Torrey Pines; 2. La Costa Canyon; 3. Grossmont; 4. Cathedral Catholic; 6. Poway; 7. San Marcos; 8. Bishop’s; 9. La Jolla; 10. Westview. As usual, Torrey Pines and La Costa Canyon are the top ranked teams. Interestingly SFC is scheduled to play all of the top 10 teams except for LCC (#2) and San Marcos (#7). Recall that the Eagles lost a close game to LCC in the first round of the Open Division playoffs last season. The Eagles made strong comeback in the 4th quarter but fell a bit short in the end.
Three SFC Seniors were noted in the Prep Lacrosse Preview as “Players to Watch” this season: Bobby Berg (Attack), Sam Cooper (Goalie) and Colton Lehberg (Midfielder and Face-off).
Kudos to the team and these players for the pre-season shout outs.
The first SFC Men’s Varsity Lacrosse game is scheduled against Coastal League rival La Jolla Country Day on March 9th at LJCD. Game time is still TBD. The balance of the schedule can be found on the Talon App.
Let’s Go Eagles!
