Encinal went 1-1 in the final week of their season. The Jets lost 3-0 to Bishop O'Dowd but beat Hayward 3-1 on senior night.
"Senior night was amazing," said Senior Alex Chin. "Even though we lost most of our games this season, just winning on that night alone to close it out made up for all of it."
The victory broke the Jets six game losing streak.
"It felt awesome and relieving," said Simone White. "It was one of the times that felt like a win was needed. Starting off and ending with a win isn't too bad; we had a good season."
