Around the Grounds
Term 4 has been a very busy term indeed with a lot of events crammed into 10 weeks. During Week 9 we had our Diocesan Volleyball and Hockey teams compete in their respective championships showing some impressive results. Our Open Girls Volleyball team secured back to back championships with a great win over St Patrick's College and our boys narrowly missed out losing their grand final against John Therry. We also had our Boys and Girls Diocesan Hockey teams compete at the Narellan Sports Hub. It was a tough day for our teams with our boys only securing a draw and our girls managing a little better with a win against John Therry and drawing with St Johns from Nowra. 

Week 9 also saw the conclusion of MISA for term 2 which was heavily impacted by rain over the last 9 weeks. We managed to secure the girls 11-12 years Netball trophy and won shared spoils of the 7-9 Mixed Frisbee championship in John Therry. We missed out on Rugby League based on for and against after a tough win against Magdalene. In addition, our girls 10-12 cricket team were successful, being undefeated MISA champions for 2024. Well done to all the students and staff involved in these teams. Next week we turn our eyes to term 3 with girls occurring for the following sports.

  • 10-12 years boys indoor cricket
  • 10-12 years girls softball
  • Under 15 years boys league 
  • 10-12 years boys AFL
  • 10-12 years girls AFL
  • 9-10 years girls netball
  • 7-8 years girls netball
  • 7-9 years girls soccer
  • 7-8 years boys soccer
  • 9-10 years boys soccer

GRAND FINAL

VS OPAC

Win 35-16

Janita Leota-Brown What a win! Despite being down ‘troops’ for a grand final match, the girls all played for each other and secured a convincing win against an Oran Park Anglican College team who got the victory against us in the round games. Janita and Krystal were solid in the shooting circle. Any missed shots were quickly followed up by a strong rebound or a turnover from the mid court players. Mia, Liesl and Rebecca were relentless in the defensive end, gathering up any loose passes and missed shots. Isabella and Layla put their hands over every pass and chased all over the court. Well done girls! A fantastic way to end your MISA netball career at Mount Carmel (for our Year 12 students anyways). Thanks again to Layla and Mia for filling in at the last minute. Your efforts are greatly appreciated by the team. Congratulations girls - 2024 Yr 11/12 MISA Netball Champions ….. yay!!!

GRAND FINAL

VS JTCC

JTCC Forfeit

MCCC Win

Melanie Riordan &

Samson Bricic

It was a dramatic end to a fantastic season. Mount Carmel went into the game the underdogs, but did not let the occasion get to them. We stuck to our strategy, got the basics right, and had John Therry on the ropes. It was tense. The lead had changed five times but with 5 minutes to go, JT were up 6-4.  Mount Carmel was on the ascendency, however we were failing to convert our final passes. That was until Samson, Ace, and Melanie combined to convert a fantastic play down the left hand edge to level the game 6-6 with minutes to spare. Mount Carmel was on a high, the game was ours to win. We were all over them. Time ran out and Mount Carmel was getting ready for the 5 minutes added time required by MISA. Unfortunately, the John Therry team refused to complete the game because they needed to catch their bus to make it back to school on time. Mount Carmel offered to play 2 minutes of added time, and if it was a draw, the title would have gone to John Therry as they finished the season in first place. But John Therry was adamant they could not continue, and as a result forfeited the game. Consequently, the Mount Carmel 7-9 frisbee team was able to retain the trophy for the second year in a row. Congratulations, and thank you to all the players and helpers. 

Softball 

Years 10-12 Boys

 

VS SBCC

Won 3-0

Joshua Dennis Finally! The boys got the win after a difficult season of softball that was heavily impacted by weather. We had a string of new players yet again who were all very enthusiastic and managed to steal multiple bases. Their intelligent base running helped us win our final game. Well done boys.

Rugby League

Years 10-12 Boys

VS MAG

Win 8-4

Jerome Taateo

Today we got a tough win over Magdalene, giving us a season where we did not lose a game. Finishing second on for and against. The game was played out with us having about 30% possession through lots of penalties and dropped balls. The boys had to keep aiming up in defence and almost kept the opposition to nil. While we can’t help but think if we had better discipline and ball control today we would have won by more, we will use this to learn from and be better next time. I congratulate all of our year 12’s Jerome, Brody and Vili and wish them all the best in the HSC studies. 

Football

Years 11-12 Girls

GRAND FINAL

VS MAG

Loss 3-0

Unfortunately the girls were defeated 3-0 in the grand final against Magdalene. There was a great defensive effort displayed by all the girls until the final 10 minutes. The girls had a number of shots on target throughout the game but unfortunately were unable to slot one away. A great effort by all the girls to make it to the grand final considering every game was played with less than 11 players. Congratulations to Charlotte on your final MISA football game!
