Bishop Fenwick was scared last night and didn’t show for the boys golf match, but they will be right back in action today in a SWOC match at Miami Whitewater.

The football team’s game this Friday versus New Richmond has unfortunately been cancelled due to Covid issues, as of right now, the team is set to add a home game though as next week’s matchup versus Dayton Carroll has been moved here, we will keep you updated as that situation progresses.

Home games for today: none.
