The Fairfield Prep soccer team completed a very successful 2022 fall season, finishing the year with a record of 13-5-5 and reaching the SCC championship game and the CIAC semifinals. The Jesuits opened the season with a thrilling comeback tie against Long Island powerhouse St Anthony and earned signature victories over Cheshire, West Haven and Daniel Hand to help them earn the #3 seed in the SCC tournament. After rolling in the first round, the Jesuits found themselves in penalty kicks against Cheshire with the game knotted at 1-1 after regulation and overtime. With a onegoal lead in penalty kicks goalie Nic Vittoria ’23 made a diving save to send the Jesuits to the championship game. In the finals the Prep team ultimately fell in overtime in a great battle. In the CIAC Class LL State tournament, Prep defeated Westhill, Glastonbury and Danbury before falling in the semifinals in penalty kicks. Led by senior Captains Brando Savi , Jack Hickey and Brady Day the Jesuits postseason run was defined by toughness and grit as the team overcame injuries, countless overtime periods and 3 games that ended in penalty kicks as they continued to extend their season. The Jesuits will graduate Savi, Day, Hickey and Vittoria as well as seniors Matthew Mancini, Junior RiosVargas, John Duffy, Robert Donahue, Craig Sheehan and Brian Galacia. This senior class has played a major role in the Jesuits success these past three years under Coach Brian Neumeyer and has laid the groundwork for next year’s varsity team.
