SENTINEL ATHLETICS WEEKLY
SUMMER EDITION · No. 1
June 29, 2026  ·  #GoSentinels

Sentinel families — welcome to our first Summer Edition of Sentinel Athletics Weekly. We’re in the off-season, so this issue highlights 2026–27 registration, a Girls Volleyball season spotlight, and several open coaching and staff positions we’re looking to fill for the year ahead.

Recent Results — Last 3 Days
No interscholastic contests were held June 26–29. Seton teams remain in the summer off-season; fall competition opens in late August.
This Week at a Glance — Next 7 Days
No games are scheduled June 29–July 6. Summer conditioning and registration continue below. Fall openers begin with Football on Fri, Aug 21 and Volleyball on Thu, Aug 27.
Tickets

All Sentinel home events are ticketed through GoFan; individual game links activate as the schedule posts. Season passes are now available on GoFan — grab yours before fall sports begin.

Registration

2026–27 Athletic Registration is OPEN. All athletes must be cleared in FinalForms before the first practice — complete every required form and upload a current physical. Register / update in FinalForms.

Heat-season reminder: Arizona summer training means hydration first — water bottles, early sessions, and following each coach’s acclimatization plan.
