JV Boys Basketball vs AISA Jan. 16, 2012 Thanks to a third quarter run, the JV Basketball team defeated the AISA Lions in their second win of the season. With their aggressive defense and full court press, the Falcons flew past the Lions in the second half and went on to win the game.

Varsity Boys Soccer Lose to DAA Leopards Jan. 15, 2012 Despite their best efforts, the Varsity Boys fell to bad luck against DAA, with a cross drifting in on 10 minutes followed by two more quick goals before half. The Falcons were 3 down but pinned DAA in their own half in the 2nd and scored a goal to end the game 3-1.
U14 Girls Basketball Win vs. AAM Jan. 15, 2012 The U14 Girls performed extremely well in a convincing win over the visiting AAM team. The Falcons Girls demonstrated great teamwork, moving the ball well and finding the net to post 41 points at the end of regulation time for a 41-16 win. Varsity Girls Soccer: Victory Over DAA Leopards Jan. 15, 2012 The ASD Varsity Girls soccer team traveled to DAA for their second match of the season. Despite being severely depleted due to illness and injuries, the Falcons played an outstanding match. With a quick shot off of a goalie rebound and a beautiful shot into the top right corner of the DAA goal, the girls went on to beat DAA by a score of 2-1, demonstrating fantastic teamwork and composure.
JV Girls Basketball Win Over AAM Jan. 15, 2012 The JV Girls started the game off pretty well and took the lead early on. Later in the game, however, mistakes and unnecessary turn overs caused a drop in the Lady Falcons' scoring. On the defensive side there weren't many rebounds, leading to many second shots for AAM and an increase in the opposing team's scoring. The final score, however, came out in favor of ASD, 32-13. |
