andover mn: Legacy vs Marantha Double header! - 10/06/10 10:12 PM
After a tough loss to top ranked Rogers, our girls played the last conference game of the year against Maranatha at Noble Sports Complex in Brooklyn Park. We were the better team throughout the game but putting the ball in the net was very elusive. We had 4-5 balls scamper across the goal never finding there way in. The wind was strong from the south and against us in the first half. Keeping the game tied or taking a lead by half would be huge. At about the 30 minute mark. We were able to get the ball across the goal, … (0 comments)

andover mn: Legacy vs Heritage - 09/29/10 09:18 AM
After a week of book ending ties against larger schools Fridley and Big Lake, we were ready to take on conference rivals Heritage. This was extra fun for us as we know their keeper's (Rebecca Walk) parents. Rebecca did play a great game in goal keeping the game scoreless through the first half. Legacy sister combos played a big part in this game. Senior forward Annette Scheil caught their keeper charging the ball and shot it past her for the first goal of the game. Renee Scheil was dominate on the right middle of the field, foiling several attacks and creating … (0 comments)

andover mn: Lagacy Christian Academy Girls soccer - 09/10/10 08:46 AM
West Lutheran came to Legacy for our home opener Thursday night. Both teams played a very physical match and very evenly throughout. Emily Kirby posted her second consecutive shutout with Jenny Friday and Courtney Thompson leading the defense. There were some great chances to score with crossing passes but neither team managed to put one in the net. It went to double overtime and ended in a 0-0 tie. That leaves Legacy 1-0-1 in conference play.

andover mn: Meadow Creek's final game ever! - 05/24/10 12:45 PM
Subsections started last Thursday against Cromwell. Who? That is what we were thinking as rearranged sections pushed us up north. Anyway this was a close game with Cromwell taking an early 1-0 lead which we were able to tie up in the 5th inning. The 6th inning started off by loading the bases. Then Renee hit a soft liner in to right field scoring 2 runs. Jenny followed up with another single driving in 2 more runs. Once again, we scored the go ahead runs in the last at bat of the game. We shut them down in the 7th to … (0 comments)

andover mn: Meadow Creek Saints Softball Game 9 - 05/05/10 01:49 PM
Another great game tonight we faced Lions Gate/Bethany Academy. We were on the board first with a run in the 2nd and 3rd innings. Lions Gate held a few runners off the board by making some great defensive plays. Then they broke out with a 3 run 4th inning. In the bottom of the 4th we had 2 base hits but both runners were thrown out trying to take an extra base, so we went 3 up and 3 down for the 2nd time this game.
We scored 2 times in the bottom of the 5th with some more timely hitting … (0 comments)

andover mn: Meadow Creek Saints Softball Game 7 and 8 - 05/03/10 12:02 PM
The girls traveled to Providence Academy to face one of the top teams in the conference. This ended up being a defensive battle with our girls throwing out 2 girls at the plate and 2 girls trying to steal home. We also turned two double plays in the game. Going into the bottom of the 6th tied 0-0 the Providence team seemed worried. They brought their bats that inning though and scored 4 runs and won 4-0.
This game featured the first trick play pulled off the the Saints though since 2003. The double steal was on and Lauren threw to … (0 comments)

andover mn: Como Tourney for Meadow Creek fastpitch - 04/19/10 11:55 AM
There was a slight chill to the air but otherwise the weather was perfect for softball. We drew Highland Park in the first round and played a good defensive game. Our bats remained silent though for the most part and we lost 6-2. St agnes was next, and our defense played another strong game and Kelli's pitching was good but the bats were left on the shoulder too often. Another 6-1 loss.
In the last game of the day we played Minneapolis North and the bats were swinging from the begining of the game. This allowed Coach D to empty her … (0 comments)

The place: Minnehaha Academy
The time: 1pm 11-7-2009

Minnehaha was rocking with the pep bands from Meadow Creek and Mayer Lutheran switching back and forth. Meadow Creek played after games 1 and 3 and Mayer played game 2 and 4 if necessary.
Game one our Saints started off a little slow but quickly gained an edge in the match. The score was close throughout but our Ladies took game 1 25-22. Great start girls!

andover mn: 4A Sub Section Champions - 11/06/09 08:08 AM
The first game of the night pitted #1 seed Southwest Christian against #2 seed Mayer Lutheran. Mayer Lutheran won the match 3-0. So now we know who we will face on Saturday if we get by Heritage Christian.
Heritage came out strong and took an early lead in the first 2 games. Our Lady Saints just kept playing at a strong pace and limiting their own errors. The first game was won 25-15 by the Saints who were pounding the ball. In the 2nd game after trailing 6-2, we pulled even at 7 and then the match stayed even to 18 … (1 comments)

andover mn: Meadow Creek Saints Volleyball - 11/04/09 07:45 AM
Well the first 2 games of sections went by without a hitch. The girls quickly took care of Minneapolis Edison in 3 games. Last night West Lutheran came out and looked better than Edison, but we dropped them in 3 as well. Therese was able to use all of her bench in both sets and still maintain an edge over the competition.
Thursday night the sub-section Championship will be held at West Lutheran in Plymouth. Southwest Christian will face Mayer Lutheran at 6 and Our Lady Saints will take on Heritage Christian at 8 pm. SHould be some great volleyball so … (0 comments)

This is the 4th year of the "Battle for the Paddle", this year at Crown College.

This is the year for Meadow Creek Saint's 8 senior Volleyball players. They have been playing together at the Varsity level since 8th grade, when they formed the first B squad in Meadow Creek's history. They just knocked off both Champlin Park and Maple Grove last week and started conference play against New Life Academy at home with a win. Here are some other highlights for the year. I will update this blog as the season progresses through the State Tourney.
The girls stunned Heritage in a blowout and probably their best played game ever. There wasn't hardly a spike that … (0 comments)

We attended the fund raiser for Meadow Creek Christian School last night. They have a silent auction of donated items, you could buy anything from Wild tickets to baskets for presents. There was easily 400 different items to bid on. The items made by specific classes were always bid very high as each parent wanted to bring home what their child had made. My favortie was the scrabble board with everyone's name on it. We didn't win any bids.
After that we had dinner and updates on the capital campaign for the new building. Sounds like they are almost ready to … (1 comments)
