The Brophy wrestling team took fifth place at the Eagle Invitational, hosted by Ironwood High School. The field included Ironwood, Mountain View, Marana, Westwood, and Sunrise Mountain. The Broncos had four placers, led by champions Adam Angulo at 150 and Jack Sweetman at 215. Tanner Dryer was second at 138, and Landon Jurek was third at 190.
“We had an up-and-down tournament. I am proud of my guys. They competed hard the past two days, and we know what we need to hone before sectionals and states,” said head coach Wayne Catan. “Angulo looked dynamite, tech falling an all-state opponent from Thunderbird in the finals. Similarly, Jackson Sweetman had a great two days, pinning every opponent in the first period.”
This morning, Brophy College Preparatory proudly hosted its New Student Convocation, a cherished tradition that prayerfully welcomes new students and their families into the Brophy community. This year’s convocation was particularly special, as it marked the arrival of the Class of 2028, coinciding with the school’s centennial year, as well as the Loyola Academy Scholar Class of 2031.
The ceremony included a prayerful reflection, highlighting the school’s commitment to faith and the Jesuit tradition. The event concluded with a blessing for the new students and their families, setting a positive and hopeful tone for the years to come. As the Class of 2028 begins its journey at Brophy, and the Loyola Academy Scholars continue their academic path, they do so with the full support of the Brophy community.
