Aquinas boys’ high school soccer team lost 5-1 against Wesleyan in the second round of the
Private Georgia High School State Playoffs on Friday, May 2.

After scoring early in the first half, Aquinas would fail to have success offensively the rest of the
game.

The Fightin’ Irish season ends with a 14-6 overall record and 12-3 region record. This would
mark their best and most winning season since 2019.

Wesleyan will move on the Elite Eight to play Paideia on Tuesday, May 6.
