After having two seasons affected by Covid-19, Severna Park spring sports teams are looking forward to starting up again. Tryouts start March 1 and there are many competitive athletes who will be working to make an impact for their team this spring. “My freshman year our season ended just two weeks after tryouts and last season was not exactly normal,” junior lacrosse player Liv Tramontana said. “So I’m just excited to get back into the swing of things and enjoy time with my teammates.”

SPHS senior Gus Bachmann has been participating in soccer for over a decade. Over the course of this time, he has crossed paths with many who made a lasting impact on him and aided in his development as a player and a person. “I’d really like to thank my teammates for making these last four years of high school soccer such a great time,” Bachmann said. “I’d also like to show appreciation for Coach Ryan Parsi, who has always been a kind mentor to me in soccer, as well as [in] life.”

Caption: Severna Park falcons take on playoffs with captain Brandon Asch as their starting goalie, having a six game shutout means he has not let in a single goal for six games straight. This has helped lead the falcons to win regionals and take them further into playoffs. Asch had a serious nose injury causing him to get stitches yet still strives with a mask covering his face during these past games. “When it comes to saving a ball there is never a technique. Its always in the moment and is all reactionary” Asch said.

The SPHS volleyball team starts practicing from the middle of August and goes until November. “Just the mental aspect of keeping at the top of your game is the toughest thing,” Dunbar said. The team needs to focus on their training, and for long term practice and games the ability to stay focused is necessary. Because volleyball doesn’t have a time limit, matched skill levels can make games go for two hours or more, it makes the mental endurance for the players to constantly be at the top of their game a necessary skill.

Junior Trey Smack joined the SPHS varsity football team as their starting kicker his sophomore year. Since then, he has been nationally ranked for his outstanding performance on the field. “If I got beat out by a girl then she’s a good kicker and deserves it,” Smack said. “Advice I would give to a girl who were to try out [would be that] you should be proud to be a Falcon and we will treat you like every other person.”
