Headmaster's Update
Aggie State Tournament Softball Team: The girls varsity softball team acquitted itself well at the state softball tournament this past weekend. They played the defending state champion, Zumbrota-Mazeppa, in the first round and lost the game 9-4. That team went on to win the entire tournament, with only their final game being any closer. The team did not have a single senior on the team, so we hope for a strong showing again next year. Congratulations to Mr. Berthiaume and the entire Aggie softball team!

Fr. Jaspers Receives New Assignment
For the past year,
Fr. Andrew Jaspers has faithfully served Saint Agnes Church and School. It is that time of year for new clergy assignments, and Archbishop Hebda has appointed Fr. Jaspers as parochial vicar at the Cathedral of St. Paul. He will also continue to serve as a spiritual director at St. John Vianney College Seminary, and that role will expand given the increase in enrollment that SJV is experiencing. We thank Fr. Jaspers for all of the good work he has done in our parish and school, and we bid him farewell with the promise of our prayers.
