Student Council holds final sports event before this school year ends

She is one of the members of the winning girls’ team. She and her team had one all of the games to go to finals and be the champions.

 

Last week’s Thursday, the final tournament happened. After the previous basketball tournament , Student Council decided to ask people for their opinion on what new tournament to have, two of the different choices were a basketball or soccer tournament, and the winner with the most majority of votes was to have a soccer tournament once again. As the year ends, this was the last sports event that will be happening at AJCMS.

What was different about the previous soccer tournament is that this time there were two different brackets, a boys and a girls bracket. This meant that there would be two different tournaments going on at once, with a first place boys, and girls team.

The girls tournament ended early because there were not a lot of girls teams willing to participate, but the one that lasted was the boys tournament.

Eighth grade Student Council representative Jasmin Sandoval said, “I liked that they had actual brackets… that this time we had a girls’ soccer team.”

The reason of the separate girls bracket was to motivate girls to participate in the event and to not be shy to compete against others.

Jasmin also said that she thinks the tournament went well because a lot of people enjoyed it.

While in the tournament, a lot of students were cheering for different teams and even the competitors.
