V/JV Boys/Girls Cross Country Invitational

Jan. 13, 2012

Falcon runners had a fantastic first meet, competing against runners from DAA and ACS. Nearly all runners on the team ran personal best times, some by as much as 4 minutes. Although there was no official award ceremony for this meet, ASD runners came in first for all categories and represented ASD well with their sportsmanship and athleticism.

JV Boys Basketball in Close Loss to GWA

Jan. 11, 2012

Following a good first half, during which the Flacons led at half time 21-15, the JV team ran out of gas in the second half and fell behind late in the third quarter. Despite their fatigue the Falcons fought back in the fourth quarter and fell just short of winning the game in the final seconds, losing 38 - 39 to GWA.


U14 Boys Soccer vs. DIA: Cautious Start, Strong Finish; U14 Girls Soccer Play Hard but Lose to DIA

Jan. 11, 2012

The U14 Boy's soccer team travelled to DIA to play in their first game of the season. The game started off with both teams playing cautiously.  It was not until late in the first half that the first goal of the game was scored by DIA.  Going into the second half, the team regrouped and battled back to tie the game half way through the second half. This gave our boys the momentum to score their 2nd and 3rd goal resulting in a hard fought win over DIA.

The U14 girls soccer played a great first game away from ASD today, but despite solid teamwork and determination, ended the match with a 1-0 loss to DIA.
