New Announcements:

The Simley Girls volleyball team played in the Visitation Invitational on Saturday, September 11th and came away with a solid second place finish, losing only to the Academy of Holy Angels. The Spartans defeated South St. Paul and host Visitation in straight sets along the way. The team played well after suffering a gut punch the day before when Sophomore libero Makayla Goldschmitz suffered a broken hand the day after Goldschmitz helped lead Simley to a signature win over Tartan which included her anchoring the back row and all but closing out the conference win with a run of 11 points including the penultimate point. Highlights included 24 kills by Junior middle hitter Naomi Romslo and 52 assists by Senior setter Lauren Tuccitto. The tournament also featured the varsity debut of Sophomore Kelsi Ries who joined the team to help with back row ball control. The Spartans appeared to have a second new player, when Senior Lexi Young had the best volleyball performance of her Simley volleyball career with 5 kills without an error in one match alone. The Spartans’ home opener is this Tuesday against Park of Cottage Grove before continuing their Metro East campaign against Hastings on Thursday.

The Simley Marching Band took home first place at the Defeat of Jesse James Day Parade in Northfield.  Up next for them is the Autumn Daze Parade in South Minneapolis on Saturday morning.  We hope to see you there.

Theatre News:

The fall production for the 2021/22 Theater Season is Clue - On Stage!  It's a dark and stormy night, and you've been invited to a very unusual dinner party. Each of the guests has an alias, the butler offers a variety of weapons, and the host is, well . . . dead. So whodunnit? Join the iconic oddballs known as Scarlet, Plum, White, Green, Peacock, and Mustard as they race to find the murderer in Boddy Manor before the body count stacks up. Based on the cult classic film and the popular board game, Clue is a madcap comedy that will keep you guessing until the final twist.
