Knights girls soccer, volleyball celebrate senior nights

ROYAL CITY – Both the Royal girls soccer and volleyball teams honored their seniors on Tuesday night, with both teams facing La Salle in their final regular season home games of 2022. The Knights earned the win in girls soccer, defeating the Lightning 2-0. On the volleyball court, the Knights took RPI top-ten La Salle to five sets, eventually falling 3-2. “Any time you beat La Salle, I don’t care if they’re down, it makes no difference, we don’t get many of them,” Royal girls soccer head coach Jens Jensen said. “I think the girls that have scored on La Salle, that have scored in my time coaching, you could put on one hand. Tonight we got a goal from two seniors, on senior night.” Royal seniors Sam Fitzhugh and Ivy Delay both found the back of the net in the girls soccer win, with the goals being assisted by seniors as well. Delay assisted on Fitshugh’s goal, and Delay’s goal was assisted by senior Alondra Morales.
