A remarkable run to the state championship match for the Boys Soccer team, a ninth straight trip to the state finals in Boys Cross Country and a return to the state finals in Girls Cross Country highlighted another tremendous fall season for Trojan teams.

The Girls Soccer team also picked up a Sectional trophy and the Volleyball team won its first DAC title as well.
