The St. Joseph Hill Academy (SJHA) Blue Crew boys' soccer team captured first with a 5-1 Staten Island Youth Soccer League Under-15 Boys Division triumph over the St. Joseph/St. Thomas Tornadoes Gold Sunday at Owl Hollow. The victory left the Blue Crew with a 7-1 mark or 21 points in the division. “We played consistently strong soccer throughout the season and played a few matches in tough weather conditions," said Blue Crew head coach Chris Beinert, who is assisted by Chris Mignano and Rabih Maroun. "This shows our team has great resolve.” In eight games, the Blue Crew scored 43 goals and conceded only 12 goals for a +31 goal differential. According to league stats, the number of goals scored was the highest in the division and the number of conceded goals was the second lowest in the division.
