Lloyd Memorial High School held its first senior night for newly established boys and girls soccer teams on September 25, 2026, marking a significant return of the sport after decades. The girls team celebrated a 6-0 victory over Holmes, while the boys team suffered a 7-2 loss against the same opponent.
