Tennis vs JCA

Benet's tennis team was supposed to host Joliet Catholic this past Thursday, but JCA thought the match was at 7 PM on our "lighted" tennis courts.  There are no lights, and the match was postponed to a later date.

NFL Draft

The Chiefs' first pick in the 2013 NFL Draft and Benet football have something in common.  They both have a player who attended Central Michigan University.
Any thoughts on the draft?

Rain Out

I know that this post really has nothing to do with spring sports.  But, after spending an hour and 35 minutes driving to and from Benet (a drive which usually takes 50 minutes), I think we need a Benet rowing team.  Location: the side of any street in Naperville or Lisle.

The Bugle Newspaper Error

I noticed in the Bugle Newspaper from April 3rd that the writer noted that four varsity baseball players also played varsity basketball: senior Pat McInerney, junior Joe Boyle, senior Rob Haemmerle, and senior Conor Bonnett.  The writer failed to realize that Conor Bonnett did not play basketball, but that his sophomore brother, Colin, did.  He also spelled Conor's name Connor.  Any thoughts?

Sophomore Beneventi Receives Scholarship Offer from Notre Dame

According to irishillustrated.com, the University of Notre Dame's Yahoo football recruiting site, Notre Dame has offered Benet sophomore quarterback Jack Beneventi a football scholarship.  Beneventi has also received offers from the University of Illinois, Western Michigan University, and the University of Massachusetts.  Congratulations, and any comments?
