Now on to some of our fall sports!

Volleyball

During the month of August, the varsity, JV Green and JV White teams were hard at work preparing for the season. Practices, scrimmages, and jamborees have given the players valuable time on the court to build chemistry and sharpen their skills. The varsity enters the season replacing four starters who are now freshman in college.  Co-captains Caroline Beahm and Jesse Lambert are helping to lead the way during what should be an incredible season.

This Week Ahead

Tuesday: All three teams traveled to Hahnville High School to face the Tigers, with details provided in next week’s report.

Thursday & Saturday:  The varsity team competes in its first tournament of the season at Assumption High School in Napoleonville.

Spotlight on Varsity

The varsity team has shown strong resilience in adapting to lineup changes, with new starters stepping into key roles. The leadership of Beahm and Lambert is already setting the tone for a disciplined and competitive season.  Here are your varsity players:  Caroline Beahm, Nola Borges, Cori Cenac, Caroline Hillery, Jesse Lambert, Susu Milling, Eloise Puckett, LeiLani Reid, and Jailly Vance.

Spotlight on JV

The JV squad has been building momentum in scrimmages, giving younger players valuable opportunities to grow. Their energy and hustle in practice have been contagious, setting a positive example for the program as a whole. With steady improvement each week, the JV teams are preparing to make an impact in upcoming matches.

Looking Forward

The teams are focused on continued growth and strong competition as the season begins to take shape. With both varsity and JV showing early signs of progress, the Newman volleyball program is positioned for a promising year!

Football

The Newman Greenies kicked off their 2025 football pre-season campaign last month under new Head Coach Aaron Vice with a three-way scripted scrimmage at Joe Yenni Stadium against East Jefferson High School and Jefferson Rise Charter School. Led by senior captains Henry Jackson, George Loop, and Jake Randle, the Greenies had a productive showing after completion of the first summer workouts and pre-season camp under Coach Vice.

Highlights included a passing touchdown for both junior quarterback Ren Guidry and freshman quarterback, Jaylen Hunter who shared reps in their effort to step up after the graduation of now-Princeton Tiger quarterback Eli Friend. Guidry connected with senior wide receiver Collier Villere for his longest completion (35 yards) and to senior wide receiver George Loop for a touchdown, finishing 7 of 14 passes for 96 yards. Hunter completed 5 of 9 passes for a total of 37 yards, including a strike to junior Hendrix Hill for a touchdown. Loop led the receiving corps in total yards with 59, while Hill had the most completions at five. New to the varsity receiving corps is sophomore Thomas Smallpage, who had his first reception of the season.

The Greenie rushing game was carried by senior Jake Randle behind a completely new offensive line. Randle carried the ball five times for two rushing touchdowns. PATs were successfully kicked by senior Jack “Goose” Falgoust. The Green Machine defense was stout, defying both opponents. Several new faces in new spots stepped up and helped lock down the opposing offenses. Interceptions were made by sophomores Tanner Robert and Brunson Morris.

Another bright spot was the kickoff return game. Loop returned kicks twice for 63 yards, and Smallpage fielded two more for 66 yards. Hill also fielded a return for 17 yards. In the end, both preseason exhibitions served as excellent preparation for the regular season, and the entire roster was able to participate in both contests, giving the coaches their best look and gaining experience roster-wide.
